    Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

    I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.

    Reminds me of:

    If God didn't want us to eat animals, he wouldn't have made them out of meat.

    Honoutrable mention:
    Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
    I've heard a few like that, but my favourite is probably:
    "Give a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life"

    I tend to utter this one a lot, i'm told by my friends, although I can't remember where I heard it. I think it was in readers digest one month. Usually when one of my friends looks for advice from a group of us.

    "He who builds from the advice of many will live in a crooked house."

    Another great one from Oscar that perfectly reflects modern society:

    "The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything. Except what is worth knowing. Journalism, conscious of this, and having tradesman-like habits, supplies their demands."

    Best ending line from a movie ever :D

    "F**K YOU CHUCK NORRIS!"

    Oh and the airtight proof that vegetarians are wrong:

    "If God didn't want us to eat animals, he wouldn't have made them out of MEAT"

    I've stolen this from another forum, but I love it!!! I don't know who wrote it though....

    HRH Queen of Bolly.
    Pop it for me!

    When I drink Champagne?
    I only drink Champagne when I'm happy, and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company, I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I am not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it - unless I'm thirsty.

    "Jim Harper wasn't ambushed...he was skinned alive"

    and

    "So you cooked up a story and dropped the 6 of us in a meat grinder"

    Quality film.


    Also liked:

    Hunter S Thompson: “Ah, devil ether. It makes you behave like the village drunkard in some early Irish novel... total loss of all basic motor skills;
    blurred vision, no balance, numb tongue. The mind recoils in horror, unable
    to communicate with the spinal column. Which is interesting, because you can actually watch yourself behaving in this terrible way, but you can't control it."

    As you mentioned Hunter S Thompson here is another one of his I like from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas:

    “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

    "I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it."
    Mark Twain (After reading this one quote any fear I had of death disappeared. It did more than all those years of religion ever did.)

    See now it did the opposite for me! First off try imagine eternity next imagine you not existing. Cue mental breakdown !!!!!

    But the point Mark Twain was saying is that we had been dead for an eternity before we were born and, personally speaking, time just flew by. When we were born we don't go, "Wow, that was a long wait, I'm dying for a smoke". I used to imaginie death as being my mind as it is now just floating around in blackness for a billion trillion brazilian years just waiting around doing nothing. It won't be like that, it will be complete nothingness, just as it was for 12 billion years before I was born.

    no, we were the souls of an alien race from some mad planet somewhere, but that evil emperor alian man killed us all and threw us in a big volcano, right, then we tried to escape so he captured us and brainwashed us into bein mental, right, so then we wandered the earth until the dawn of man and then the cavemans were invented, right, so then we found them and decided they were good host bodies so we went inside them and now we're all descendants of caveman/mental alien prisoners! true story!
