"No lesson seems to be so deeply inculcated by the experience of life as that you should never trust experts. If you believe the doctors, nothing is wholesome: if you believe the theologians, nothing is innocent: if you believe the soldiers, nothing is safe. They all require to have their strong wine diluted by a very large admixture of insipid common sense." -Lord Salisbury writing to Lord Lytton, June 15, 1877

Came across this in a book I was cataloging today. Thought it was interesting. It wouldn't fit on my signature, and I wasn't about to cut down characters by making 'you' into 'u'.

You can have the Model T in any color, as long as it is black. - Henry Ford

You plan to make a ship sail against the wind by lighting a bonfire under it's deck? - Napolean
When you hope for something, you often believe in something. When you believe in something, you often have pride in it. Being proud often leads to a hating of some group.

SpongeBob: Hey Patrick.
Patrick: Yeah?
SpongeBob: I just found something funnier than twenty-four.
Patrick: Let me hear it.
SpongeBob: *muffled giggle* Twenty-five.
*both laugh intensely under their hands*

Oh, there's no way I could completely recreate that scene this way. Like any other good scene, it has to be watched in order to enjoy in its full glory. Still, I find it pretty good to mention it here myself.

SpongeBob: Why don't you go home, Patrick? You could play the Under the Rock All Day games!
Patrick: *gasps* Well at least I don't polish my finger nails!
SpongeBob: *same* You take that back!
Patrick: *mockingly* Finger nails, finger nails, finger nails!
SpongeBob: You don't even have finger nails!
Patrick: *hesitates* I cannot believe what I'm hearing!
SpongeBob: How could you hear it!? You don't have ears either!
Patrick: *stammers* Well, uh... Holes! Holes!
SpongeBob: Conehead!
Patrick: Yellow!
SpongeBob: Pink!
Patrick: *yells in frustration* I'm gonna get in the Fry Cook games and its going to be easy!
SpongeBob: Fine!

Again, another of those scenes, but anyone who've seen it before can recall.

My favorite movie quotes:

Mame

"Life is a banquet and most poor sons'-of-bitches are starving to death."


One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Chief Bromden: "Hmmm...Juicy Fruit"


Cannery Row

<Fauna> The stars say that you are gonna be - oh... that you are gonna be President of the United States!

<Mack> I don't believe it.

<Hazel> I don't wanna be no President!

<Fauna> You got no choice; the stars have spoke. You'll just have to go to Washington.

<Hazel> But I don't want to! I don't know nobody there!

<Fauna> I'm sorry, Hazel.

<Hazel> Ain't there any way I can tell 'em I won't do it?

<Fauna> No.

<Hazel>: [sobbing] A thing like this could ruin my whole life!
Shadows on the ceiling, coffee cup congealing
Tarot cards revealing, a solitary feeling
Terminal eyes, but I think it's alright
