Favorite quotes ever!

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it. -Steven Wright

 

[Raziaar]

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the Old.

-- Winstom Churchill

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near Tenhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost like tears in rain. Time to die." - Roy Batty

"But, I guess a lot of people without brains talk a lot. Hm?"
Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz.

Also, on that note of the above quote, you don't reign in hell. At all. Maybe Satan makes you think you reign in hell, but you definately don't. I would rather serve in heaven than suffer in hell.
Also, just noting your signature, Polaris, the fact you made a group praising and showing your fanship for a particular atheist makes me consider atheism even more as an organized group of people who believe in a certain thing. [Read: RELIGON.]

The quote is Satan himself. Satan was supposedly a servant in heaven, and then fell to become the master of hell.

That makes more sense.

Also, I saw this on another forum

I don't think anyone knows how bad slavery is. Most of the people in this world haven't seen it since the ones that have are either dead, enslaves people, or are enslaved and can't complain.

"All gods are homemade, and it is we who pull their strings, and so, give them the power to pull ours."
-Huxley

 

[Polaris]

Aldous or Thomas?

 

[Gormanmod]

huh? Most God's were created by villages in caves. I personally believe in one, but none were created by string pullers, just cave men.

 

[Taboo]

Those are both Aldous Huxley, but Thomas is good also. I just read Brave New World recently.

[Skaadi]

I used to have this old book called 'The Old Gods Laugh', before it fell apart and I had to throw it out, but I always remember the quote at the beginning. "The old Gods are dead. They died laughing when one old grimbeard of a God stood up and said "Thou shalt have no other Gods before Me."

Anyone have any idea who originally said that?

 

[Gormanmod]

Frank yerby. He drove kirby

 

[Skaadi]

Frank yerby. He drove kirby

Heh. Yeah I know who the author was, but the quote at the beginning of the book was from a different person.

Well in a way it is.

I believe there is not a magical fairy behind me, because I have no evidence to suggest there is.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.
