Romeo: I defy you stars!

My favorite quote is "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women are merely players." That,of course,is by Shakespeare.

A quote I've written myself. I think it's beautiful.

At the moment: Hugs Not Drugs. I dunno, I heard someone saying it as he left Wild Oats and it just sounded really cool...does that make sense. It was just funny to hear.

That is my favourite quote.
Thre is a loftier ambition than merely to stand high in the world. It is to stoop down and lift those around us a little highter.

The Upanishads offer to each aspiring heart countless messages. There are quite a few messages which are at once most significant and most fulfilling. Here is a stupendous message about life and death. Before death and after death, what happens? This is the message of the Upanishads: 543
(Before death, life is a seeker. 544
After death, the same life becomes a dreamer. 545
Before death, life struggles and strives for Perfection. 546
After death, the same life rests and enjoys the divine Bliss with the soul. 547
Before death, life is God’s Promise. 548
After death, life is God’s inner Assurance. This Assurance of God’s we notice while we fulfil God in our future incarnation. 549
Life for each individual is an act of inspiration and revelation. Life is an experience; even so is death. Our human life is God’s sacred flame mounting towards the highest Source. Human death, the so-called death, is a secret play of God’s Will. 550
When we study the Upanishads we start with the concentration of the mind. This concentration of the mind is the most difficult thing that we can do)
{in my interpretation of this text, realizing the many gods included in this religion, I choose to interpret god in many alternate ways except for the god-concepts of Judeo-Christianity}
Dont know who said this but I like this quote "Remember at the end of the game the King and the Pawn goes back into the same box"
"The mind of man is capable of anything--because everything is in it, all the past as well as all the future." ....Joseph Conrad
"Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy." Guillaume Apollinairea

I don't know about all those quotes. I guess some are good. I like your user name though. That reminds me of being in a teenager in the 90's and everyone listened to the "alternative" stations that were playing "alternative" bands but it wasn't so alternative because everyone was jumping on that bandwagon. And somewhere along the line, I started referring to that type of music as alter native instead of alternative (most likely someone else said it first and i just copied - i am not claiming that I started this) and your username reminded me of that. I have no idea if you know what I am talking about, but just so you know. :)Quote:

oh,don't get me started about fav quotes! I am a sincere quote collector(I don't know how it sounded,but it's true) and i jot down them whenever I come accross a resembling one(you know,resembling with my own opinions) Here goes some-
"If the facts don't fit the theory,change the facts."-Albert Einstein (coolest,isn't it?suits him!)

And that is not paid with moan
For we are born in others' pain
And perish in our own."
(don't know who said that,though,I just keep saying it to myself)

Blossom where the rose should grow,
I shall sing when night's decay
Ushers in a drearier day."
-Emily Bronte
"There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so."-Shakespeare
"Our thoughts are nothing but the mere followers of the privileges that we utterly desire." -(said by T.Rahman,polished by me)

Silence tells the seeker in us to love, to love himself.
It tells us it is wrong to hate ourselves because of our imperfections.
When the seeker loves himself, loves the Divine within himself,
he eventually realises the Ultimate Truth.
i like too much one phrase of O.Wilde. iam not sure if was said exactly as iam gonna interpet it..

"Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run... but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant... " - Hunter S. Thompson
"I had a flash of something I hadn't felt since my first months in Europe--a mixture of ignorance and a loose, 'what the hell' kind of confidence that comes on a man when the wind picks up and he begins to move in a hard straight line toward an unknown horizon" - Hunter Thompson again
"Some days, life just looks like me versus every stupid chick in the whole damn world" - Palahniuk (sorry ladies :angel: )
And of course my personal favorite:

For me, this is a mirror of our own era, and many times, our own lives.

"I bet when you first came to school, you didn't expect to be answering stupid question like "what is the density of the earth?". Well, get used to it, your test is tomorrow. So prepare your stupid answers to the stupid questions in the stupid test made by your stupid teacher, and whoever gets perfect will get a burger.
Whoever fails owes me one 18"pizza." :D

Story of my life! Okay, so I know it's a song, but since I just quoted it, it is now a quote.
"How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank!
Here will we sit and let the sounds of music
Creep in our ears; soft stillness and the night
Become the touches of sweet harmony.
...Look how the floor of heaven
Is thick inlaid with patens of bright gold.
There's not the smallest orb which thou beholdest
But in his motion like an angel sings,
Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubins;
Such harmony is in immortal souls,
But whilst this muddy vesture of decay
Doth grossly close it in, we cannot hear it."
- W. Shakespeare
- "Many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our point of view"
- "Who's more foolish: the fool, or the fool who follows him?"
- "The Force will be with you, always."
by Sir Alec Guinness alias Obi Wan Kenobi
