before making a quotes be sure you make your own no copy others i need 30 or 35 Quote "this game makes you imaginative and language skills to the test :DD good luck"
ok let's go!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Many dream of their Great Valleys, few are willing to act to make them real.
EDIT: Why is it that you need the specific number of 30 or 35 quotes?
-
"I'm not a man, I'm an airplane."
-
The first step to do something "impossible" is to give it a try.
-
'jesus on a hovercraft!'
kind of an exclamation.
btw: is this kind of a homework for school?
-
In driving, always remember: D stands for forward, R stands for backward, P stands for neither, and N stands for whatever direction you happen to be going when you switch to it.
-
I've had this one for a while.
"A snake has many twists and turns in its body and shape. So does a human in personality, skill, physical form, and interests. However, both snake and man have very strait foundations."
This is now proof that Ptyra is a snake-geek :p
-
Hmm I've had some made up quotes in the past.
This one I thought of when I was 13 or 14:
"Live to learn,
Learn to Love."
This is said when a family member was wearing something, and I knew I could joke around with them, so when I saw them wearing something I didn't care for I said:
"That looks good...ON YOU!!!"
I think I said that when I was 10 or 11 years old
edit: Try to see the beauty in all things, even if some of these things aren't exactly what most people would call "beautiful".
-
do you know why i create make your own quote be'cuz i had to a quote when i create a charter or draw a cartoon or animation i think this is my personal quote
"Quote: Be like a dragon to be strong, Be like a kangaroo courage
and jump high, Be like a Phoenix to keep continuing until The END"
now kanganix is born :p
-
"Quote:Welcome to Subway, can I take your order? Mmm Hmm. Yup. Got it. HEY FRANK, BLT ON RYE HOLD THE MAYO!!! That'll be $3.50, you want a drink with that?"
Now LettuceBacon&Tomato is born :p

A country is not likely to improve through resignation of its citizens.

I say this one only at my high school, and if you went there you would see why.
"I'm surrounded by idiots. <_< "
(Of course, this is true for most, but not all students there)
-
i def know what ya mean, chronicler...
when someones says something like 'good luck' to me, i always say:
i don't need luck, i need a miracle in shape of a GIANT mecha fist, chrashing into the school.
-
"Raise your voice and stand up for what is right, even if you're hated for it."
-
There are those lamenting about what they do not have and waiting for miracles to get them what they want, and there are those making use of what they do have and who act to get what they want rather than waiting to get it delivered by the grace of some miracle.
-
I came up with this one after the shooting deaths of two irate shoppers in California and the trampling death of a Wal-Mart employee in New York on Black Friday:
"There is no material item in this world that is worth the taking of a human life over."
-
"There is no material item in this world that is worth the taking of a human life over."
A completely irreverent follow-up:
"We don't end sentences with prepositions where I come from."
-
This would fit a fair amount of fanfics I've read.
"Who needs a plot when you've got one-liners like this?"
-
"If you're gonna sit your a** upon a chair, make sure it's comfortable. You've sat down 'cuz it's gonna take awhile right?"
-
"He who double-posts has no understanding of the 'preview' button and should be severely disciplined."
(EDIT:This made sense before an admin deleted the extra post for me. Thanks admins!)
-
"Watch your weight, for gaining 5 pounds takes an hour of eating, but losing 5 pounds takes a week of hard work."
-
Here's a new one:
"The only thing worse than doing something bad is doing it again."
-
"It's fun to come up with quotes."
-
"If there's something we do know, its that nothing is impossible."
I love ma quote.
-
"A good fighter pilot is defined by his flying style.'
-
"When in a rocking chair you rock, while in a waiting room you wait, when you're about to have an abortion, why not abort your action?"
-
"He who compares himself to another has no true value, for a man of value does not compare himself to others to find his own worth. Instead, he looks to his own intellect and abilities in order to attain a sense of enlightenment within himself. Only then can wisdom be attained. With wisdom comes value. With value comes respect. Respect is the basis of value for oneself through the eyes of others, however a true man of value articulates his worth through the amount of wisdom he possesses, not the amount of respect he's paid."
-and yes, this is my own quote.
-
Okay, time for some of my darker quotes:
"One who finds it necessary to point out others' errors in a non-constructive fashion needs a swift kick where the sun does not shine :anger!"
On somebody playing mind-games with me or insulting me:
"It takes two to play that game. S**** with me and thou shall see my ugly side surface."
If someone's ever called me a b****, which has rarely happened:
"Excuse me, but I'm not just any b****. I'm a royal purebred pedigree b**** who also happened to be the pick of the litter. Don't forget it!" :p
or
"It takes one to know one."
One more for now:
"Ignorance and stupidity are two very different things. To be stupid is to have a cognitive impairment of which the individual cannot control, whereas ignorance is an individual's reluctance to have an open mind and learn something. This being the case, the vast majority of those who are called 'stupid' are actually ignorant."
-
her's another one
divide we are alone together we stand
-
follow up update
if the pages go to 3 - 4 make a QUOTE "DARK VERSION"
-
A qoute of my own. I haven't actually used aloud though.
"They say ignorance is bliss, but knowledge is power, so I say it's best to have a balance of the two!"
-
Ignorance is bliss, knowledge is triumphant joy!
-
Two more quotes which I used in chats:
Many people talk about half full or half empty glasses, but does anyone ever think of drinking up, no matter how high the glass is filled?
Some people are likely to commit suicide for fear of death.
-
Hmm...I like this thread. Great quotes, everyone! :D I've got some quotes of my own I'd like to submit, but at this moment I can only think of one that's not in my signature already.
This is what I say to people when they tell me I'm cynical:
An optimist is right or wrong; a pessimist is right or pleasantly surprised. :p
-
These are ones I think I came up with.................... but they might just sound to good for someone like me to come up with. But, I have never heard of these ones before.
1. "My imaginary friends think you're crazy"
2. "Some people believe they were put on the earth to be a gift from god. If that's the case, god should have kept my receipt".
-
Here’s another quote of mine, formerly from my signature, broken down and analytically explained for the benefit of anyone interested. :p
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but flattery will get you nowhere. So what could I possibly gain from deliberately copying your ideas?
The first half of this quote, rather obviously, plays with two idioms regarding flattery, basically making fun of the first one (which I have heard described as “a crock of crap”: a verdict I agree with). I have a dry sense of humor, tend to be literal, but also find sarcasm funny, so I find this sort of thing amusing. :p
The second part relates to a more serious concern of mine. A peculiar thing I’ve noticed is that I often brainstorm an idea for LBT (usually relating to fanfiction), and later find out that someone else has independently come up with the same idea. :blink: I really, really hate plagiarism, and would never deliberately steal someone else’s idea for my own benefit, so the statement is basically there to tell people, “If I’ve got the same idea as you, it’s a coincidence. Why would I copy it, when I consider imitation pointless?”
-
Time for an update!
This is one I like when I used to be heavier whenever someone called me fat in a mean fashion:
"I may be fat, but you're ugly and I can always diet!"
I may be on the small side now, but I tell heavier friends that one whenever they get upset about someone commenting on their weight, and they like it alot :lol.
On the note of being made fun of or judged, I came up with the following:
"Your existence must be terribly boring if you've got nothin' better to worry about than what I'm doin'."
This was good especially in high school, when the troublemakers would tease me for "not having a life". If getting high/drunk and getting lucky is considered havin' a life, I'd definitely rather not have one :rolleyes:.
Some more of mine:
"It is better to do your own thing and worry for just a moment what others will think than it is to go with the flow and constantly worry about what others will think."
"It's a waste of time to worry about what others think. They don't do it too often!" :p
"Shallow minds talk about people, decent minds talk about events, and brilliant minds talk about ideas." :)
-
"Wow, all my quotes in this thread are really stupid."
-
Wow! Aren't we all philosophical buggers! :p May as well add a few of my own ;)
When visiting a distant land you need only know two phrases in any language:
1. How much is it? and 2. My friend here will pay for it :p
Here's a few my dear old grandmother often preaches to me. Carribbean sayings:
"It's not one time monkey want wife"
"Patient man ride donkey"
"If you want to bend a tree, best do it while it's young"
-
1. How much is it? and 2. My friend here will pay for it
Zank you for ze ‰dwaiz Jason. I will remember zat won wen I com to visit ju. Mai Inglisch is not zat good, ju now? :p

No one ever gained recognition by following the crowd.
This one’s pretty straightforward, and like most of my quotes, it reflects a habit/belief/characteristic of mine. I’m positively phobic about doing what everyone else does for the sake of fitting in. I’m not what one would call a rebel (I still try to fit in to some extent, and my sense of morality obliges me to follow societal rules), but I am averse to conformity: when freedom is an option, I do things my own way. (One early memory I have of my non-conformist habits comes from 1st grade, in which the first class activity of the year was to draw a picture of an apple. Everyone was expected to draw a red apple, but back then, my favorite color was green, and I figured that since there was such a thing as green apples, there wasn’t anything wrong with making mine that color. -_-)
I experimented with a couple of variations on this quote, selecting what I felt to be the most appropriate one for my signature. Here are some rejected versions:
No one ever got anywhere by following the crowd.
I kind of preferred how this one sounded, but, literal-minded nutcase that I am, :p I decided that, strictly speaking, it was inaccurate: people have gotten through life by being conformist; they just never made names for themselves doing so.
No one ever became famous by following the crowd.
I was quick to discard this version, because while technically true, I personally have little interest in fame (I like to be recognized, yes, but not to be the center of attention all of the time), and I wanted my signature quotes to reflect my own personality and philosophy.

Lol, trouser tightning sequence
*shifts eyes* You don't want to know about that one :p
Okay, it's from Yahtzee's review of the Batman: Arkham Asylum game where he mentions one section being a trouser tightning section :lol:
-
It's always nothing personal, but that's the worst part about it.
A world without evil is the worst thing imaginable, for without the contrasting darkness of evil there is no way to identify the light of good.
Here's a response to this quote from Avatar:
"It is hard to fill a cup that is already full."
"Not if you get a bigger cup!"
-
"The open-minded are not simply those with an inability to distinguish fact from fiction."
Something I often think when people call me "closed-minded" for refusing to seriously consider certain ideas.
-
"It is possible to care too much. Sometimes, acting with the best of intentions can actually make matters worse."
-
"all the world will be your enemy, prince with 1000 enemies, and when they catch you they will kill you, but first they must catch you"
kind of shows my outlook that if you dont let people get to you, they can't harm you.
-
Another one of my more cynical quotes: :p
Expect the worst, and you’ll never be disappointed.
-
(While chatting with my x)
"It is the point of relationships isn't it? To grow?"
-
~i will die before you get to my love~

"The things you like to do, are the things you are great at."
I actually got this from an old german commercial and I like that quote a lot. ^_^
-
What commercial was that Sky? What was was the original wording?
-
Lol, trouser tightning sequence
*shifts eyes* You don't want to know about that one :p
Okay, it's from Yahtzee's review of the Batman: Arkham Asylum game where he mentions one section being a trouser tightning section :lol:
A fellow ZP watcher! I love that series!
EDIT: Uhh, I guess that line up there^ is my quote.

@Malte
I'm not sure...has something to do with cows and milk I think.
The words were "Nur was man gern macht, macht man gut!"

"Open your eyes open up in the clear blue sky i be there to hold you close in my mind.
can you see the stars mapping out the sea to night celebrate up on you see to start again"

this is from of a song for more details just go to youtube :) ^^

I just came up with one that, considering the amount of reviewing I do on the GOF, might as well be my motto:
Giving compliments is easy; it's much harder to tell people what they're doing wrong in a helpful manner.
I figure this's the reason why, for every sentence I spend talking about what I like about someone's work, I usually write about a paragraph on what I think could use improvement. :rolleyes:
-
Very nice Pangaea i like that ^^
my QUOTE Wake up, leave your hesitation
Wake up, Time for us to realize
Wake up, Show appreciation
Wake up, Time for us to realize
-
I hate being teased, so I poke fun at myself before anyone else can. :p
-
@ Pangaea
that was nice i love that ^^ :DD
-
Sad to say, most of the quotes I come up with aren't exactly uplifting. Here's one that represents one of my personal rules of thumb for avoiding awkward social situations:
Honesty is a good policy . . . but sharing all your thoughts at all times is a bad idea. :p
Here's another one that basically applies to anything I write, but particularly to writing assignments involving topics that I'm not very confident with:
When in doubt, set your standards for quality high and your expectations for feedback low.
-
Which image do you prefer? A flickering flame on a candle or a bowl of ice cream?
If you are a man:
Candle-You either embrace your manhood, or you LOVE the same gender in THAT way. ;)
Ice Cream- You either embrace your feminine side or you are a ladies man. :D
If you are a woman:
Candle- You either embrace the masculine part of you or you a man's woman. ^^
Ice Cream-You embrace your feminine side or you are a woman's woman. :yes
-
this is from a game that i love so much
Because it is you that made such me
Sinking in the dark
I boat on the water
Wander the world of light
Mercy mercy from the deep shadow of the white and blue judged
I loved justice so I can not breathe
-
^ Uh…I thought this was the “Make Your OWN Quotes” thread. Maybe we should have a new thread for posting quotes that we like, but didn't come up with ourselves.
I think I had a quote earlier today, but I forgot it. :bang
-
Whoa… Didn't realize how long it's been a since anyone's posted in this thread. :blink:
Well, here's another philosophical tidbit from me:
Every clichÈ started out as an original idea.
-
I didn't even know this thread exsisted. :blink:
Here's mine!
Growing in faith
Inspiring to try
Willing to fall
Learning to fly.
-
ok hears really mine
you will find the will to face you fear
-
I feel like posting some quotes right now, so here’s a random one of mine that crossed my mind just now. (I came up with it back when I was taking an Analytical Reasoning course in my sophomore year of college.)
Logic without facts is like a recipe without ingredients.
-
Here are the three philosophies I follow:
"If it doesn't hurt me or anybody else in any direct way, then what's the problem?"
"If I don't get anything out of it, then what's the point?"
-
A person may role the eyes about being asked something trivial by someone while hoping to be asked the same triviality by somebody else.
-
