"Everybody's got a story that could break your heart." ~ Amanda Marshall (Heh. Not so much a quote (it's a song lyric), and not even from a song or singer I like, but the line stands out to me.)

And now, a handful of choice quotes, mostly all from the same source (good ol' Einstein):

"The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible."

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction."

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."

"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."

"Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen."

"God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically."

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."

"If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut."

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."

"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."

"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious."

"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts." (Sign hanging in Einstein's office at Princeton)

"Stupid is as stupid does."-Forrest Gump yet again. ;)

"Luke, I am your father."-Darth Vader.

"I wanna go to Friendly's."-Commercial.

The following are from Ferris Bueller.
"The question isn't "what are we going to do," the question is "what aren't we going to do?"

"A: You can never go too far. B: If I'm gonna get busted, it is *not* gonna be by a guy like *that*."

"The key to faking out the parents is the clammy hands. It's a good non-specific symptom; I'm a big believer in it. A lot of people will tell you that a good phony fever is a dead lock, but, uh... you get a nervous mother, you could wind up in a doctor's office. That's worse than school. You fake a stomach cramp, and when you're bent over, moaning and wailing, you lick your palms. It's a little childish and stupid, but then, so is high school."

Titanic Quotes:

"You jump, I jump. Remember?"

Jack: Well, yes, ma'am, I do... I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count.

Jack: I'm the king of the world!

A scene from Titanic (A series of quotes:
Molly Brown: [to the group who are dining at the same table] Hey, uh, who thought of the name Titanic? Was it you, Bruce?
Ismay: Yes, actually. I wanted to convey sheer size, and size means stability, luxury, and above all, strength.
Rose: Do you know of Dr. Freud, Mr. Ismay? His ideas about the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest to you.
Ruth: [whispering] What's gotten into you?
Rose: Excuse me.
[She rises and leaves]
Ruth: I do apologize.
Molly Brown: She's a pistol, Cal! Hope you can handle her.
Cal Hockley: Well, I may have to start minding what she reads from now on, won't I, Mrs. Brown?
Ismay: Freud? Who is he? Is he a passenger?

"I feel like such an idiot."
"A lot of that going around."
"I just couldn't ... My whole life has been about being a cop. If I'm not a part of the force, it's like nothing I do means anything."
"It doesn't."
"Doesn't what?"
"Mean anything. In the greater scheme, in the big picture, nothing we do matters. There's no grand plan, no big win."
"You seem kind of chipper about that."
"Well ... I guess I kind of worked it out. If there's no great glorious end to all this, if ... nothing we do matters ... then all that matters is what we do. 'Cause that's all there is. What we do. Now. Today. I fought for so long for redemption, for a reward, finally, just to beat the other guy. But I never got it."
"Now you do?"
"Not all of it. All I want to do is help. I want to help because I don't think people should suffer as they do. Because if there's no bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world." ~ Conversation between Kate and Angel, Angel season 2, "Epiphany"

"I look around at this world you're so eager to be a part of and all I see is six billion lunatics looking for the fastest ride out. Who's not crazy? Look around. Everyone's drinking, smoking, shooting up, shooting each other, or just plain screwing their brains out 'cause they don't want 'em anymore. I'm crazy? Honey, I'm the original one-eyed chicklet in the kingdom of the blind, 'cause at least I admit the world makes me nuts." ~ Glory, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "The Weight of the World"


"Dawn, the hardest thing in this world... is to live in it." ~ Buffy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "The Gift"


"Passion. It lies in all of us. Sleeping ... Waiting ... and though unwanted ... unbidden ... it will stir ... open its jaws, and howl. It speaks to us ...guides us. Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love ... the clarity of hatred ... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow. Empty rooms, shuttered and dank ... Without passion, we'd truly be dead." ~ Angelus, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "Passion"
