Dear oh dear oh dear. Not very awe inspiring perhaps because it is a work entirely of fiction discussing factors which are impossible i.e 'the force'

"Strength and courage aren't measured in medals and victories, but in the struggles we overcome. The strongest people are not the people who win, but the people who don't give up when they lose."- Ashley Hodgeson
I like these:
"Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security." - Benjamin Franklin
"Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning." - Benjamin Franklin
"A lie told often enough becomes truth." - Vladimir Lenin
"Can a nation be free if it oppresses other nations? It cannot." - Vladimir Lenin
"Death solves all problems - no man, no problem." - Joseph Stalin
"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." - Joseph Stalin
"Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it." - Adolf Hitler
"I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature" - Adolf Hitler
All of these quotes have just as much power and meaning in today's world (sadly).
Some of my favorites:
We do what we do because of who we are. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves. ~ Morpheus (Matrix)
One pardons to the degree that one loves.
~Francois de La Rochefoucauld
To be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it.
~Confucius
The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt.
~Bertrand Russell
"Sometimes you have to jump and build your wings on the way down"
Unknown
"Modern art is what happens when painters stop looking at girls and persuade themselves they have a better idea." - John Ciardi
“Eagles may soar but gophers don't get sucked into jet engines”
~Unknown(Taken from X96.com)~
"You can only fly if you spread your wings"-unknown
"The difference between suviving and living-surviving is being able to wake up in the morning alive, living is being able to wake up in the morning with a purpose"-me
"After 17 long, painstaking years of study and reasearch, I still have no idea what the hell I'm doing"-John Andrews on life.
I have a few good gems right here;
"An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind"
"It takes nothing from one candle to light another"
"Be the change you want to see in the world"
"Violence may not be the answer, but it sure as hell gets the point across"
"To make a mistake you first have to make a choice."

"Man is born free; and everywhere he is in chains."
Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is - Infinite
I wouldnt give Satan a chance in Hell against a woman's ego. He'd rule earth for a day, then we'd see him outside mowing the lawn
We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe
“Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find ''tomorrow'' on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, ''If I had my life to live over again. ''Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.”
What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest loneliness, and say, 'This life which you live must be lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again and again be turned and you with it, dust of the dust!' Would you throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or would you answer, 'Never have I heard anything more divine'?”
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live.”
The belief that one's own view of reality is the only reality is the most dangerous of all delusions
Tell the Kraut to get his ass up front. We don't pay a million for a guy to hang around in defence." - some american owner who didnt want franz bekenbauer to defend(LMAO, he is a defender, thats his job)
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Appreicate your friends. Continue to learn. Do what you love. Live as this is all there is."
I saw this movie about a bus that had to SPEED around a city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode! I think it was called, the Bus That couldn't Slow Down.
The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we're afraid. We fear we will not find love, and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we do not have love we will be unhappy.
