Post your quotes!!! Words to follow...
Been thinking about how some of the old sayings still apply today, and then some do not.
What are some quotes you live by, or tell others? They can be your own, or someone elses.
Here are two of my own quotes.
"Some say their cup is half full, some say their cup is half empty, me... give me my free refill."
"Without Asians, Caucasians are just dicks."

You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need. (Rolling Stones)
Its better to burn out than to fade away. My, My, Hey, Hey...
I'll try to remember some original ones while im out. Maybe I'll have something when I get back.
"You can't walk forward without tripping if you're always looking behind." My words, I can't remember how I used to word it so its kinda paraphrased.

"Worship power, you will end up feeling weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to numb you to your own fear. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart, you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud, always on the verge of being found out. But the insidious thing about these forms of worship is not that they're evil or sinful, it's that they're unconscious. They are default settings.
They're the kind of worship you just gradually slip into, day after day, getting more and more selective about what you see and how you measure value without ever being fully aware that that's what you're doing." - David Foster Wallace

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desart. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.Here at the edge of this world
Here I gaze at a pantheon of oak, a citadel of stone
If this grand panorama before me is what you call God
Then God is not deadTime is a drug. Too much of it kills you.Life is a disease: sexually transmitted, and invariably fatalEverybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybefasdfasdfasdfasdffasdfYou got to catch up
You got to watch out

:3 word .Man made gods and idols, You think they can save man?
If you become suicidal, you're made to believe they can
Sins for which I'm guilty, I am by my own hand
Forgiveness I'm not seeking, I'll live by my own command

3 I live by.
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
There are no second chances.
The two most important days in your life are the day you were born, and the day you find out why.

You live to learn, you learn to live, then you die and forget it all.
Way I see it is, just have fun with life.

I never wanted to love but i always wanted to be loved ~
IF you think you made a mistake Don't try to correct it rather try not to make it again... ~
life is full of regrets but living it is not one of them! ~

and few quotes i reallllllly like
“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”
― John Lennon
