“I shall die here. Every last inch of me shall perish. Except one. An inch. It's small and it's fragile and it's the only thing in the world worth having. we must never lose it, or sell it, or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.”

"One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being ruled by your inferiors." - Plato

"You have to go through a lot of nightmares before you accomplish your dreams"

"There are no men like me, only me"


"Aging means losing things, and not just eyesight and flexibility. It means watching the accomplishments of your youth be diminished, maybe in your own eyes through perspective, maybe in the eyes of others through cultural amnesia. Most people live anonymous lives, and when they grow old and die, any record of their existence is blown away. They're forgotten, some more slowly than others, but eventually it happens to virtually everyone. Yet for the few people in each generation who reach the very pinnacle of fame and achievement, a mirage flickers: immortality"

No lie, I wrote a quote damn near identical that in high school and I've never seen that before.

"Your just a fukking animal but I'm the Neo Sapien
Cause my original civilization was based upon creation
You know theirs no escaping even though your heart is racing
I'll put your best disciple on academic probation
fukk the litigation, fukk the best rapper nominations
And fukk the president I voted for assassinations

-- immortal technique.

"Possess the right thinking." Only then can one receive the gifts of strength, knowledge, and peace.
--- The rat, Master Splinter.

"Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them."
--- Assata Shakur

The genius of you Americans is that you never make clear-cut stupid moves, only complicated stupid moves which make the rest of us wonder at the possibility that we might be missing something.

Proverbs 12:1-28

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid. A good man obtains favor from the Lord, but a man of evil devices he condemns. No one is established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous will never be moved. An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones. The thoughts of the righteous are just; the counsels of the wicked are deceitful. ...

Proverbs 23:9
Do not speak in the hearing of a fool, for he will despise the good sense of your words.

“Don’t tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you have traveled.”

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”

“If someone puts their hands on you make sure they never put their hands on anybody else again.”

“Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the Gun down.”


“People don't realize how a man's whole life can be changed by one book.”

'If I tell you the truth, you don't have to remember anything.'

'Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.'

'It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not deserve them.'

"All of writing is a huge lake. There are great rivers that feed the lake, like Tolstoy or Dostoyevsky. And then there are mere trickles, like Jean Rhys. All that matters is feeding the lake. I don't matter. The lake matters. You must keep feeding the lake.” - Jean Rhys

Dope thread, even though some quotes make me feel like a bum tbh

The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.

This one hits home...attributed to Michelangelo, though it's disputed

For some reason I though favourite was spelled like favorite.

In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
