well then we're shit out of luck." ~Stu from The Hangover

"Live Life" (my tattoo)

Dreams-
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

A lot of this shit is too long. Fear's getting it right with the shorties. Most quotes are overly sentimental, pseudo-deep shit anyway by people who think they're being insightful by using unusual words. I only need two:


"Sometimes, I do what I want to do. The rest of the time, I do what I have to."

- Cyrano, from the film Gladiator




"You're not going anywhere, you thick lump. You stay until the job's done."

- Mickey O' Neil, from the film Snatch




Those two cover about every situation in life I can think of.


Edit: Ok, I lied, maybe one more:

"We are here on earth to fart around, don't let anyone tell you any different."

- Kurt Vonnegut

 

I like these coach quotes:

'Son, you've got a good engine, but your hands aren't on the steering wheel.'
-- Bobby Bowden / Florida State

'There's nothing that cleanses your soul like getting the hell kicked out of you.'
-- Woody Hayes / Ohio State

'The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely to be the one who dropped it.'
-- Lou Holtz /Arkansas
