Hey Guys
You can post your favorite quotes here and tell us, how it helped you in special situations or why you like it!
The only Rule:

You can post more than one quote, but please write a separate comment for each quote!

For example:
"It's never too late to be who you might have been."
This is one of my favorite quotes because it happened so often in my life. I guess everyone wants to be someone different sometimes and I did this two times in my live and now I feel like I'm more like myself.

I'm looking forward to read your favorite quotes and some interesting stories!
Have Fun!
~Ryan

And another:

"The world isn't rendered in black and white,
Other shades lie between.
Don't view the world with binary eyes,
We are Human, not Machine."

- "Binary", Assemblage 23

A few really awesome ones here that I mightn't top off, but here's a nice one.

"Be an example to your men, in your duty and in private life. Never spare yourself, and let the troops see that you don't in your endurance of fatigue and privation. Always be tactful and well-mannered and teach your subordinates to do the same. Avoid excessive sharpness or harshness of voice, which usually indicates the man who has shortcomings of his own to hide."
- Field Marshall Erwin Rommel

maybe I am just a little fucked up
Maybe life's just a little fucked up.

Slim Shady (Eminem)

Just a silly quick lyric in a song designed to offend however if you think about it
it kind of explains itself we tend to assume people that act different to what we expect as a society are messed up/ crazy e.t.c

however maybe life's the crazy messed up thing maybe we aren't meant to all follow the same paths in life . maybe some of us are meant to stand out for good or bad.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
-Winston Churchill

I like this one. It means if you are in a bad time, you probably wont get out of it unless you keep going.

"All wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?"
- the Buddha.

While I exchanged my true pursuit of enlightment for my current relationship, Buddhism's got me through a plenty.

"Be careful what you pretend to be, because you are what you pretend to be." -Kurt Vonnegut. I think it's pretty self explanitory.
Also, not to cheapen this great quote, but I could write a whole paper about this and it's expression in Mean Girls.

"Cruelty, like every other vice, requires no motive outside of itself; it only requires opportunity." -George Elliott
Why the human race sucks.

"It's the moral copout of the century to go out of your way not to filter anything based on moral content because of "free speech"." -Josh Blume This qute is actually direct from one of dA's own. Until I read this, I wasn't sure how to express my disgust for most people on the internet.
