I find several decent quotes everyday. And yet I do not have the room to post them all as my signature. So I figured I would make a thread where we post quotes that are rather significant but too long...
--------------------------------------------------------------
I don't wish to imply that there aren't good things about you or that you're not an extraordinary person but I'd rather let other people enjoy the surprise
Had we never loved so kindly, Had we never loved so blindly, Never met - or never parted, We had never been broken-hearted.
I hated her now with a hatred more fatal than indifference because it was the other side of love.
You know you are in love when you see the world in her eyes, and her eyes everywhere in the world.
Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more it is willing to see less.

Best Quotes from Moulin Rouge: ----------------------------------------------------------
Christian, you may see me only as a drunken, vice-ridden gnome whose friends are just pimps and girls from the brothels. But I know about art and love, if only because I long for it with every fiber of my being.
Can't fall in love? But a life without love, that's terrible!
"You're free to leave me, but please don't deceive me..."
You made me believe you loved me!
(best movie...ever)

"Suicide hotline, please hold..." "A ship in the harbor is safe, but that's not what ships were meant for!" ~Adventure I frankly felt like the reception we received on the way in from the airport was very warm and hospitable. And I want to thank the Canadian people who came out to wave -- with all five fingers -- for their hospitality. -- George W. Bush As you know, we're studying safe levels for arsenic in drinking water to base our decision on sound science, the scientists told us we need to test the water glasses of about 3,000 people. Thank you for participating.
"Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?" Let us analyze that sentence for a moment. If you're a stickler, you probably think the singular verb "is" should have been the plural "are," but if you read it closely, you'll see I'm using the intransitive plural subjunctive tense. So the word "is" are correct.
In my sentences I go where no man has gone before...I am a boon to the English language. -- George W. Bush
When humor goes, there goes civilization. -- Erma Bombeck

Memorable Quotes from O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000)
George Nelson: Cows! I hate cows worse than coppers! [fires his Tommy gun at them] Delmar O'Donnell: Oh, George... not the livestock.
Ulysses Everett McGill: You two are just dumber than a bag of hammers.
Pete: The Preacher said it absolved us. Ulysses Everett McGill: For him, not for the law. I'm surprised at you, Pete, I gave you credit for more brains than Delmar. Delmar O'Donnell: But they was witnesses that seen us redeemed. Ulysses Everett McGill: That's not the issue Delmar. Even if that did put you square with the Lord, the State of Mississippi's a little more hard-nosed. Ulysses Everett McGill: Me an' the old lady are gonna pick up the pieces and retie the knot, mixaphorically speaking.
Pete: Wait a minute. Who elected you leader of this outfit? Ulysses Everett McGill: Well Pete, I figured it should be the one with the capacity for abstract thought. But if that ain't the consensus view, then heck, let's put it to a vote. Pete: Suits me. I'm voting for yours truly. Ulysses Everett McGill: Well I'm voting for yours truly too. [Everett and Pete look at Delmar for the deciding vote] Delmar O'Donnell: Okay... I'm with you fellas.
Tommy Johnson: I had to be up at that there crossroads last midnight, to sell my soul to the devil. Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?
Pete: You miserable little snake! You stole from my kin! Ulysses Everett McGill: Who was fixin' to betray us. Pete: You didn't know that at the time. Ulysses Everett McGill: So I borrowed it until I did know. Pete: That don't make no sense! Ulysses Everett McGill: Pete, it's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.
Delmar O'Donnell: Them syreens did this to Pete. They loved him up and turned him into a horny toad.
Pete: Well hell, it ain't square one! Ain't nobody gonna pick up three filthy, unshaved hitch-hikers, and one of them a know-it-all that can't keep his trap shut. Ulysses Everett McGill: Pete, the personal rancor reflected in that remark I don't intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your general attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lilies of the ~censored~ field or... hell! Take at look at Delmar here as your paradigm of hope. Delmar O'Donnell: Yeah, look at me.
Delmar O'Donnell: Friend? Some of your foldin' money is come unstowed.
Delmar O'Donnell: You work for the railroad, Grampa? Blind Seer: I work for no man. Delmar O'Donnell: Got a name, do you? Blind Seer: I have no name. Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, that right there may be the reason you've had difficulty findin' gainful employment. You see, in the mart of competitive commerce...
Ulysses Everett McGill: The treasure is still there boys, believe me. Delmar O'Donnell: But how'd he know about the treasure? Ulysses Everett McGill: I don't know Delmar. The blind are reputed to possess sensitivities compensating for their lack of sight, even to the point of developing paranormal psychic powers. Now, clearly seeing into the future would fall into neatly into that category; its not so surprising then that an organism deprived of its earthly vision... Pete: He said we wouldn't get get it. He said we wouldn't get the treasure we seek on account of our ob-stac-les. Ulysses Everett McGill: Well what the heck does he know, he's just an ignorant old man.
Ulysses Everett McGill: A woman is the most fiendish instrument of torture ever devised to bedevil the days of man.
(that's a goodin')
Ulysses Everett McGill: I'm not sure that's Pete. Delmar O'Donnell: Of course it's Pete! Look at him!... We gotta find some kind of wizard to change him back.
Delmar O'Donnell: Care for some gopher? Ulysses Everett McGill: No thank you, Delmar. One third of a gopher would only arouse my appetite without bedding it down. Delmar O'Donnell: Oh, you can have the whole thing. Me and Pete already had one apiece. We ran across a whole... gopher village.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Say, uh, Cousin Wash, I suppose it'd be the acme of foolishness to inquire if you had a hair net.
Ulysses Everett McGill: It ain't the law! Sheriff Cooley: The law? The law is a human institution.
Ulysses Everett McGill: What'd the devil give you for your soul, Tommy? Tommy Johnson: Well, he taught me to play this here guitar real good. Delmar O'Donnell: Oh son, for that you sold your everlasting soul? Tommy Johnson: Well, I wasn't usin' it
Delmar O'Donnell: Well that's it, boys. I've been redeemed. The preacher's done warshed away all my sins and transgressions. It's the straight and narrow from here on out, and heaven everlasting's my reward. Ulysses Everett McGill: Delmar, what are you talking about? We've got bigger fish to fry. Delmar O'Donnell: The preacher says all my sins is warshed away, including that Piggly Wiggly I knocked over in Yazoo. Ulysses Everett McGill: I thought you said you was innocent of those charges? Delmar O'Donnell: Well I was lyin'. And the preacher says that that sin's been warshed away too. Neither God nor man's got nothin' on me now. C'mon in boys, the water is fine.
Ulysses Everett McGill: I like the smell of my hair treatment; the pleasing odor is half the point.
Pete: You ruined my life! [while being choked] Ulysses Everett McGill: I do apologize about that Pete.
