Re: Your Favourite Quote

OK, I think my all time favorite would have to be:

"I would rather have a free bottle in front of me, than a pre-frontal lobotomy"

A really close second would be:

"My Karma ran over my Dogma"

And of course, I would be remiss if I didn't quote my favorite toast:

"Champagne to my real friends, and real pain to my sham friends"

You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.
Frank Zappa

Re: Your Favourite Quote

All my favourite quotes are latin I'm afraid - my best seller list:

1. tolle lege, tolle lege - take up (the book) and read, take up (the book) and read

2. tantum religio potuit saudere malorum - religion has been able to lead men to commit so many evils - Lucretius

3. dum vivimus,vivamus - while we live, let us live (to the full)

and a little ditty to make you smile

A cupboard love is seldom true
A love sincere is found by few
But its high time for folks to marry
when women woo - lest things miscarry

Re: Your Favourite Quote

Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes - M Ghandi

One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying - Joan of Arc

Take one step toward G-d and He will take two steps toward you - G-d.

Before teachings others, before changing others, we ourselves must change. We must be honest, sincere, kind hearted. - Dalai Lama

Merely to call oneself a Buddhist is of little value - Dalai Lama

(think we can safely say that goes for all religions)

This one is good. It was at the top of my inbox a moment ago:

"I was the kid next door's imaginary friend."
--Emo Philips

Anyone have any idea who Emo Philips is? I don't.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

A great comic from the 60's-70's my boy. Resembles Iggy Pop in some ways, but moves more slowly with less hair. Very homely with a dry and understated delivery. But very funny. Kind of like the depressive side of George Carlin. I'll bet there's clips on Youtube.

flow....
