Keep refreshing until you've collected five quotations that really resonate with you, then post 'em to your journal.


"More often than not, a hero’s most epic battle is the one you never see; it’s the battle that goes on within him or herself."

-Kevin Smith, My Boring Ass Life, 04-18-06


"Reveal not every secret you have to a friend, for how can you tell but that friend may hereafter become an enemy. And bring not all mischief you are able to upon an enemy, for he may one day become your friend."

-Saadi (1184 - 1291)


"Discipline must come through liberty. . . . We do not consider an individual disciplined only when he has been rendered as artificially silent as a mute and as immovable as a paralytic. He is an individual annihilated, not disciplined."

-Maria Montessori (1870 - 1952)


"All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed."

-Sean O'Casey (1880 - 1964)


"To die is nothing; but it is terrible not to live."

-Victor Hugo (1802 - 1885), Les Miserables

I know that the meme says list 5 quotes. However, I had to include this one, as I find it so true (as I had to slog through academic texts at uni that took several pages to say what could be said in a few sentences):

"An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way."

-Charles Bukowski (1920 - 1994)
