My education was dismal. I went to a series of schools for mentally disturbed teachers.
Actually, I think my favorite quote for now is from a friend's history teacher. He said: "the only thing that keeps me from being happy is the universe".

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
'There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.'
-- Lord Henry
I love this quote. I was reading The Picture of Dorian Gray at work a few months ago, and when I read that line I had to tell people about it. It's so true. It made me think back to my first real relationship, all those years ago. We were together for about five years, but it was a slow death. I think the first two were good. After that I think both of us had had enough. We just didn't want anyone playing with our old toys.
Death can never hurt you until you die.
-William T. Vollmann
The Edge… There is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over. The others- the living- are those who pushed their luck as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down, or did whatever they had to when it came time to choose between now and later.
-Hunter Thompson

Very good derivative of 1 Corinthians 13:13.
"And right action is the freedom
From past and future also.

Never here to be realized;
Who are only undefeated
Because we have gone on trying;"
