"Ain't found a way to kill me yet" - Layne Staley ("Rooster")
"I don't know what's gonna happen, man. I don't know what's gonna happen. But I can tell you this: I wanna have my kicks before the whole ****house goes up in flames, allright. ALLRIGHT!!!" - Jim Morrison (talking to the audience; I forget which of the many concerts I own that it was, but I'm reasonably sure it was before launching into Roadhouse Blues.... speaking of which....
'Well, I woke up in the morning; got myself a beer. Woke up the morning, got my self a beer! The future's uncertain and the end is always near.
Let it roll, baby roll. Let it roll, baby roll All night long, yeah.")
Still haven't fully grown up....ah well...

Some Douglas Adams "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job." "I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be."

"What most people call a redneck Ain't nothin' but a workin' man And he makes his livin' By the sweat of his brow And the calluses on his hands Now you intellectuals may not like it But there ain't nothin' that you can do 'Cause there's a whole lot more of us common-folks Then there ever will be of you"

One of my favorite quotes from Discworld is "give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life."

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Two of my favourites, also from Sir Pterry:
"Personal ain't the same as important."
and
"If you trust in yourself... and believe in your dreams... and follow your star... you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy."

Woody Allen- Sex without love is a meaningless experience, but as far as meaningless experiences go, it's one of the best!

Bertrand Russell The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

Now more than ever. Harvey Milk All men are created equal. Now matter how hard they try, they can never erase those words. That is what America is about.

Two from Neil Gaiman on Doctor Who
"I don't know what it's like to be God - obviously, Until that very first moment when you get to sit down and type the words in your script: INTERIOR. TARDIS. Suddenly I got a very good idea of what it must feel like. I went: 'I'm writing it now this scene in the Tardis. I'm writing it!' And that was amazing, it was wonderful."
"Doctor Who has never pretended to be hard science fiction, At best Doctor Who is a fairytale, with fairytale logic about this wonderful man in this big blue box who at the beginning of every story lands somewhere where there is a problem..."

One of my favorite quotes from Discworld is "give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." Terry Pratchett Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.

Another Tolkien quote (well, more of an extract) from The Silmarillion: Quenta Silmarillion, Of the Ruin of Beleriand and the Fall of Fingolfin (not sure if this is 100% correct as I just pasted it from a website)

I miss Christopher Hitchens. What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
