Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain.
--Lily Tomlin; it's right. I complain.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
--Marget Wolfe Hungerford; I like hairy chests. So sue me. Nate-sama is sexy.

Some things you see with your eyes, Others you see with your
heart.
~The Land Before Time~; I see this house with my eyes, the outside with my heart. Nate-sama always with my heart.

"Cahn's Axiom": When all else fails, read the instructions.; I forget so useful to know.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we
are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most
frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing
enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around
you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
-- Marianne Williamson wrote, "from Coach Carter, Timo Cruz version"; I
should be afraid of me.

Frodo: I can't do this, Sam.
Sam: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are.
It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to
the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a
passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come.
And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories
that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to
understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk
in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They
kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?
Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth
fighting for.
--from "Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers"; that one day I'll be doing something that I love and around people who care for me.

Denethor: Can you sing, Master Hobbit?
Pippin: Well... yes. At least, well enough for my own people. But we have no
songs for great halls and... evil times.
Denethor: And why should your songs be unfit for my hall? Come, sing me a
song.
[pause]
Pippin: [sings] Home is behind, the world ahead...
And there are many paths to tread.
Through shadow, to the edge of night, until the stars are all alight...
Mist and shadow, cloud and shade, all shall fade... all... shall... fade...
--from "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"; this is just beautifully depressing.

Aragorn: [to the corsair ships] You may go no further! You will not enter
Gondor.
Captain: Who are you to deny us passage?
Aragorn: Legolas, fire a warning shot past the bosun's ear.
Gimli: Mind your aim!
[Legolas aims; Gimli knocks the bow as he shoots and the arrow kills the
bosun]
Gimli: Oh! That's it, right! We warned you! Prepare to be boarded!
[the corsairs laugh]
Captain: Boarded! By you and whose army?
Aragorn: *This* army.
[the army of the dead charges through him and onto the ships]
--from "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"; this makes me chuckle

Witch King: [taking Eowyn by the throat] You fool. No man can kill me.
Die now.
[Merry stabs the Witch King from behind; the Witch King shrieks and
falls to his knees. Eowyn rises and pulls off her helm, her hair falls
down over her shoulder]
Eowyn: I am no man.
[she thrusts her sword into the Witch King's helm and twists; he
shrieks and implodes]
-- from "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"; go women.

Sara: You're my immortality Nelson.

"Smile, it makes the world wonder what you are up to."
--Anonymous; *smiles*

"You laugh because I'm different. I laugh because you're all the same."
--Anonymous; I like being different.

Spike: YOU are the one who can't tell... fantasy from reality, Londes. If you
want to dream, dream alone.

Dr. Londes: Do you know what the greatest and worst invention that humans
ever made was? Television.
--from "Cowboy Bebop"; he hasn't heard of the internet yet...

Robin: I thought you didn't like playing the big hero.
Red X: That doesn't mean I don't know how.
--from "Teen Titans"; I should be a good kid....

Robin: But you played a part; And just like everything else you've ever done,
it's made people suffer.
Slade: It's what I do best.
--from Teen Titans; Suffering is fun.

Raven: Fathers are *kind*. Fathers *protect* you. Fathers *raise* you.
I was protected by the monks of Azarath. I was raised by my friends.
*They* are my family. *This* is my home. And you are not welcome here!
--from Teen Titans; Go girl!

"It recreational" (in reference to hookah)
