"Heroes don't accept the world the way it is. They fight it" from Angel

[ṼṏẌṏḭḊ]

I really liked one that I heard the other day in Alice: Madness Returns. No idea if it's original or not, but it's pretty cool.

“Freedom is so precious to some that they pay for it with their lives.”
-Cheshire Cat

[Angel]

“Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast”

I'm a designer so this quote is a simple recipe for creativity.

Oh, many! Here are a few:


"Did you learn that from Anime?" ― That kid from that dumb FLCL anime

"Memes. The DNA of the soul." ― Monsoon, that one edgy Metal Gear game

"Nooooooo! My graphics caaaaaard!!!" ― Francis, Super Paper Mario

"You're losing it, kiddo. I'm only supposed to be your prophet, you're supposed to be my God."

"Life seems like a cup of glory held to my lips just now. But there must be some bitterness in it—there is in every cup. I shall taste mine someday." - L.M. Montgomery, Anne of the Island

I probably went back to reread this passage twenty times while I was making my way through this book. So, so good.

[Saarath]

"What disgusts me?

That's a perceptive question. By asking it, you reveal that you consider me a man of taste. If you had asked me what I hated, I'm not sure I could have hidden my disappointment at such a banal question. But disgust? That deserves an answer.

It is jealousy that most disgusts me. It's such a petty, self-defeating emotion. I see it every day. Most men look at me and think, "I want what he has." Perhaps one in a thousand thinks, "How can I achieve what he achieved?" He's not jealous - he's motivated. Who knows, we might work together one day.

But most men are not like that. They have the desire, but not the initiative. It's like a dog watching you eat and wishing he was a human".

- Denton Patreus

[Electric Cupcake]

"Overspecialize and you breed in weakness. It's the slow death."
-Motoko, being a bit more erudite and punchy than Heinlein.

[Rio]

"Peace is but a shadow of death, desperate to forget its painful past... Though we hope for promising years. After shedding a thousand tears, yesterday's sorrow constantly nears. And while the moon still shines blue, by dawn, it will turn to scarlet hue." -kuja

War is natural, peace is unusual.

[Qlone]

Poncho : You're hit, man. You're bleedin'.

Blain : I ain't got time to bleed.
