I'll be there every step of the way...
=SB=, let's inspire and enlighten one another according to the words of the greats who have come before us (or the fictitious ones who never came at all)...


"Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it."
~ Albert Camus


"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion."
~ Albert Camus


"I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing."
~ Socrates


"Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear."
~ Thomas Jefferson


"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity."
~ Albert Einstein


"There may be nothing left for you... But despite that, you must look forward and walk a path of hope, trusting that it will sustain you when darkness comes."
~ Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, the King of Hyrule


"Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about rock-n-roll."
~ Shigeru Miyamoto


"When the going gets tough, the tough get weird."
~ my Chemistry teacher

"Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon."
-I don't know who said it
I thought it was pretty sassy, in a good way ^_^
It's by Paul Brandt, and those are country song lyrics.

Would you rather get one shot in the head or five in the chest and bleed to death? - Billy Beane, from the film Moneyball

He's saying this in reference to firing somebody from a job. Essentially, when you're delivering bad news, just say what needs to be said straight up and don't dance around the issue. I used to have this problem myself when delivering bad news or admitting a mistake to my coworkers or boss. But this phrase made me realize I really should just get straight to the point when I must say something that I don't want to say. It's better for everybody involved this way.

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called 'the present'."
~Master Oogway (Kung Fu Panda)

Seems like a strange character to quote, but that's a whopper of a saying, IMO.

That quote is actually from a book written in 1902. xD

Soon the social media universe will be taken over by revolutionary websites.. like CraniumNovel and PossessionArea.

Lol, still a good quote.

I WANT-I WANT-I WANT. Every day you hear people say what they want or bought. Well, this is what I want. I want people who are sick, to be healed. I want children without parents to be adopted. I want people to never have to worry about food and shelter and warmth. But most of all I would like to see people give to care about each other, less gossiping and more to help each other ... Now let's see how many people will copy this. I think almost anyone. I did it, now you do.

Here's one that I thought was actually pretty clever and holds a decent amount of truth.

"Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter." ~ Papa Eclipse

This is some psychic guy I saw on a show mum was watching. Not that fond of the show but I took this away from it.

Anyway, I take this as the people who are the most important to you won't mind all the weird quirks and oddities you may possess and will accept you regardless, where as those who would make a big deal out of 'em probably aren't that important. Which makes sense to me~
