    What is your favorite quote from anything, whether it is a movie, TV show, or just said by someone in general?

    I thought this quote by Thomas Edison was pretty clever: "I haven't failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

    Mine is "Not all who wander are lost".. because I tend to live outside the box and as we all know, many find living differently than they do to be odd or "lost" lol. I sort of think those inside the box are the lost ;)

    "The only thing you have to decide...is what to do with the time that is given to you."
    JRR Tolkien...The Lord of the Rings

    It really helped me to focus on what is really important in life at a time when I was going through a lot of chaos.

    My favourite quote at the moment is by the lead singer of a band called Five Finger Death Punch: "In the end we're all just chalk lines on the concrete....Drawn only to be washed away....For the time that i've been given....I am what i am."

    One of my favorite quest is "everyone knows the price of everything but the value of nothing". This quote really got me thinking about society and about everyone being obsessed with brands and not with more important things like what we do in these things that make the priceless memories.

    My favorite quotes are the ones that make me laugh but is so true. For example:

    "I'm not like most girls" - most girls.

    This is true for guys as well. I guess I'm also a sucker for those Meme pics people post on facebook.

    That mostly works out for guys, but i get what you mean.
    For me, i would have to say the famous quote from Dirty Harry "I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk? ".

    'Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent.' Marilyn vos Savant

    When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place. - Author Unknown

    "That which gives light, must endure burning." (As a positive bringer of light, sometimes you go through problems and trials.)

    Chivalry doesn't suit Mediocrity. Good quote. It basically means you can't come to a woman's rescue unless you have an actual plan to rescue her. If you don't, then you're mediocre. And will only make the situation worse. Then her, and her aggressor, will both hate you.

    "Life is like a box of chocolates, You never know what your going to get." It really is true. If someone told me where I would be at today back when, I would never have believed them,because I thought I had my life all mapped out. I didn't know what I was going to get for sure. Is it my destiny?

    They can conquer who believe they can.
    - Virgil

    Getting an idea should be like sitting on a pin: it should make you jump up and do something.
    - unknown

    When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

    If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down.
    - Mary

    Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.
    - Napoleon Hill

    Economy is the art of making the most of life
