"People don't want their lives fixed. Nobody wants their problems solved. Their dramas. Their distractions. Their stories resolved. Their messes cleaned up.
Because what would they have left?
Just the big scary unknown"
- Chuck Palahniuk
Löjligt förtjust i bra citat!
Har hunnit samla på mig ett gäng över åren.

Samma här. Hade en period då jag samlade det jag stötte på men nu går det ju att få tag på det mesta via nätet. Några favoriter:
"I had worn out shoes and it made me sad, until I saw a man with no feet."
- Okänd
"Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."
- Churchill (historisk klassiker)
"If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."
- Chomsky
Sen är jag pinsamt förtjust i ordstäv som förvridits och blivit allmänt sjuka:
"Hellre en fimp i krattan än kramp i f****n."
"Bättre en kälke på vinden än en spark på pungen."
"En gång är ingen gång. Två gånger är en gong-gong."
Tja...du greppar nog härvidlag... ;)
Ah, yes! =)
Kan fylla på med några av min egna favoriter.
"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."
- Steven Weinberg
"People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they never use."
- Soren Kierkegaard
"The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it."
- George Bernard Shaw
"The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good"
- Samuel Johnson
"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it"
- Henry David Thoreau
"Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power."
- Lao Tzu
"Whenever you find you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect."
- Mark Twain
"Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein."
- H. Jackson Brown
Nu får det räcka för den här gången tror jag. =)
