Kweltan Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend. - Bruce Lee (1940 - 1973) (Im a mad Bruce Lee fan lol) Kweltan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yafmot Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 A couple from me: "Stupid people do stupid things, but the truly brilliant will always do them bigger, better and stupider." "I'd rather hold a turd than a hand full of speculation: With the turd, I know exactly what I've got." "Socialism is for insects." And a few from W.C. Fields: "What contemptible scoundrel stole the cork from my lunch?" "I always keep a supply of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy." "I was shipwrecked once. It was terrible: We lived for days on nothing but food & water." And a few from Robert Heinlein: "Everything in excess! To truly enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks." "Never frighten a small man: He'll kill you." "A human being should be able to conn a ship, plan an invasion, program a computer, shovel manure, cook a tasty meal, take orders, give orders, tend to the wounded, comfort the dying, fight valiantly and die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." "Certainly the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you. If you don't bet, you can't win." "I long ago grew tired of hearing the preists & shamans tout their snake-oil "miracles." I prefer the real McCoy: A pregnant woman." "I've never had much regard for the breed of "anarchist" that makes a lot of noise and amounts to nothing. This type tends to congregate in large cities where it's easy to survive on the sweat of the brow of others. They don't usually last very long. The other, more quiet type is mostly self sufficient and has managed to range across the galaxy. And they do shoot back." And one more. I've forgotten who the originator was, but it sure rings true: "Racism is the snobbery of the poor." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Hi, one of my favorite quotes, from Charles Baudelaire :"Bien qu'on ait du coeur à l'ouvrage. L'Art est long et le temps est court.""Although one's heart is in the work. Art is long and time is short." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
