Nah. Not really. I just thought i'd make a thread for the most meaningful thing you've ever heard. Why was it so important? Who said it? What was its effect? Just curious and I'm bored... *yawn*
"We don' need no watah let the mother****ah burn"
Who said that? Oh, was that from the Green Mile? (I've been on a Stephen King streak...*blushes*)
From the Season 1 finale of Six Feet Under, Nate Fisher and A client, Tracy Blaire, are having a conversation...
"Why do people have to die?"
" To make life important. None of us know how long we've got. Which is why we have to make each day matter"
I like that one. It has a nice message
"Love? Love is for the living."-Manny Calavera
Really speaks to me.
"Be excellent to each other." - Bill, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
^Proabably one of the best movie quotes EVER.
I always liked the line in Blade Runner that goes along the lines of " It's too bad she has to die, but then again how many of us really get a chance to live?" I butchered it. I know. But it goes something like that.
I also recently saw Children Of Men. It was an insanely good movie. I defiantly reccomend going to see it if you can.
Theres a line in there about your ears ringing after a really loud explosion, and how that ringing noise is actually some of your ear drums dying. The ringing is the last time your ears will ever be able to hear that frequency again, so you should savor it while it lasts.
From Firefly/Serenity (various, no order):
Mal: "We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Simon: "It's my estimation that every man ever got a'statue made of him was one kind of sommbitch or another."
Mal: "Dear Buddha, please bring me a pony and a plastic rocket..."
Kaylee: "I carried such a torch and we coulda.... Goin' on a year now and I ain't had nuthin' twixt my nethers that weren't run on batteries!!"
Mal: "Oh GOD! I can't know that!"
Jayne: "I could stand to hear a little more."
Jayne: "Ten percent of nuthin' is...let me do the math here...nuthin' into nuthin'...carry the nuthin'..."
Jayne: "Well, Jayne ain't a girl. She starts in on that "girl's name" thing, I'll show her good an' all I got man parts."
Simon: "I'm trying to think of a way for you to be cruder. I just - It's not coming."
Sheperd Book: "If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater."
Kaylee: "You mean to say as in... sex?"
Simon: "I mean to say..."
Kaylee: "Well, hell with this. I'm gonna live!"
River: "Noah's Ark is a problem."
Book: "Really."
River: "We'll have to call it early quantum state phenomenon -- Only way to fit five-thousand species of mammal on the same boat."
River: "I can kill you with my brain."
Is it obvious I'm a Joss Whedon fan? Not nearly as fanatic as you'd think, but I do love the writing...because they make great quotes!
Oh, and yeah, if you want an important quote that affected me, it would be:
Some character from Werewolf the Apocalypse: "Thank god for the stupid."
THAT speaks to me.
Any fan of Serenity and or Firefly is a friend of mine. Thumbs up.
"Most of the people who get sent to die in wars are young men who've got a lot of energy and would probably rather, in a better world, be putting that energy into copulation rather than going over there and blowing some other young man's guts out." - Alan Moore
Ahem, a song....
"(verse 2)Marcelishious, defenition, make them girls go loco

(bridge)
[so delishious]

(chorus)
He's Marcelishious.
[He's soigne!]

[He got Cliff DQ'd, YAY!]
He's Marcelishious
[I pray to God he isn't gay!]
He's Marcelishious
T-T-T-T-T-T-T-TASTY, TASTY!"
I wrote it. If you look at the LJ community caps_topchef, I'm a loved regular.
You should make a CD. I bet all of us here would buy one. You could be a thrirty-dollarinaire. That's like a millionaire, but instead of millions of dollars you'd have like 30. Which according to my math is pretty close.
With $30, I could buy who knows what!! I could buy FAKE DIAMONDS! EXDEE
Totally. That would be tyte yo. You could do a video with you in your mascot outfit too. Seriously though if you like music you should record some for us. It'd be neat.
I tried to, but it sounded really bad. The best I've heard online was Mashi's friend Myhrr. She sang this song called "Secksay lava death" and it made me lol so much.
"And then I starred in another pornooooooo. And it was hooooottt. Literally, cause it was filmed in a volcanooooo! And that's the endddddddd!!!"
Um, u lose.
I've already seen that pic + icons of that pic.
it's still.........eww. Marcel belongs to the femz, not Ilan.
I used to be able to sing ... *sigh*
I can play the flute if that's worth any points?
Ohh! Most meaningful thing, told to me by my mom once many many years back 'Love yourself above all things.' Take it with a grain of salt, I think it has a good message.
I think that then most meaning full thing I ever heard was from this one crazy guy in my math class in my old school: "It's better to be hated for who you are than liked for who you are not." After that, he just kinda' fell asleep.
The person belies his words, methinks ;D
Heh? My brain isn't working today. That concert killed it...
I feel so bad for you ... you should get out of Band - for the new semester. I want to get into computer class myself.
"You have reached the offices of The Tick's worst nightmare…The Tick is out of his mind right now…if you'd like to leave a message, wait for the tone…"
it's still.........eww. Marcel belongs to the femz, not Ilan.
Marcel belongs in my bed...
nuff said.
the book tuesdays with morrie is a real eye-opener.
it's powerful enough that it would've changed the way i look at things, but the only problem is that i'm too lazy to bother adjusting my outlook on life. otherwise, it would've worked. honest.
Is that the one about that university professor? Which I've never actually read or heard about before just now..
We cannot see the future. We cannot change the past. We can only live in
the now with an eye towards gaining enough power in the future to wreck
revenge on everyone who ever screwed us in the past.
There is nothing either good or bad. but thinking makes it so.
William Shakespeare
Is that the one about that university professor? Which I've never actually read or heard about before just now..
yes. and shame on you
Life-changing events? I learned in health that since I'm left-handed, I had a twin that was mirror-image of me (right handed), that died in the womb. I HAD A TWIN, AND NEVER KNEW. I've got teh scaries now!
"You can't hide from your shadow." - Mickey, Natural Born Killers
I laughed at your epiphany, Dav. Honest, I did.
Who told you that Dav? I have a bunch of friends that are left handed. Do they have creepy little dead twins too? ewww
