This is easy. So you have of a quotation that you always liked? Or one that means something or speaks to you? I would be interested in hearing it. Does not matter where it is from could be a chorus or a lyric from a song (please not the whole thing or I could copy and paste who books from Neitzsche and Dostoyevsky), a quote from a movie, a bible passage, from anything. I would be interested in hearing it.

I will kick it off

I will hate the man you marry,
Because he is not me,
And love him if he makes you smile.

I think i actually coined this one: ( about love )

"its better to be pissed off than pissed on"

 

[ikaiyoo]

I am responsible for everything . . . except for my very responsibility, for I am not the foundation of my being. Therefore everything takes place as if I were compelled to be responsible. I am abandoned in the world . . . in the sense that I find myself suddenly alone and without help, engaged in a world for which I bear the whole responsibility without being able, whatever I do, to tear myself away from this responsibility for an instant. --Jean Paul Sartre

"False friends are worse than true enemies"

 

[starburstz91]

Depression, when it’s clinical, is not a metaphor. It runs in families, and it’s known to respond to medication and to counseling.
However truly you believe there’s a sickness to existence that can never be cured, if you’re depressed you will sooner or later surrender and say: I just don’t want to feel bad anymore.
The shift from depressive realism to tragic realism, from being immobilized by darkness to being sustained by it, thus strangely seems to require believing in the possibility of a cure…
