And a couple of mine

"You don't have to be dead to not be alive" and "when you display reticence toward a story or a display of emotion then you are truly posing as an asshole"

The 2nd quote may seem really obvious but most people don't seem to grasp that concept..

Ha, never heard that one of Oscar Wilde, but nonetheless very good! I liked it enough I just wrote it down and taped it too the wall!

That's a good quote, especially from an instructor. Two thumbs up!

I don't usually post lyrics but this song is very fitting to how I feel as of right now...

Gotta get away from here,
Find a way to disappear,
Say goodbye to everything and everyone I know,
Gotta go and leave this town,
All it does is bring me down,
I just wanna tell my friends no matter where I go,
I'll see them down the road.

I'm sick of dreaming,
I would rather stay up all night,
Live my own life,
Don't worry about me!

~Plain White T's

"The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself."

'Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish—a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow—to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested . . . Res ipsa loquitur. Let the good times roll.'

Hunter S Thompson
 
"I had fun, but I didn't really have anyone i particularly loved except for loving friends. But I have a certain amount of faith that it will come."

Just came across a quote I never heard and I wanted to share it.

“So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of all money?”
-Ayn Rand

This one is by me but it's sorta a tweaked version of someone elses...

"Whoever said money can't buy happiness simply must have not known about hookers, cheesesteaks, vegas, or having no dept." -me

And since I'm going with the money theme here, one more for ya all.

“Money is not the most important thing in the world. Love is. Fortunately, I love money.” -Jackie Mason

"You took too much man, you took too much, too much

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die

When I came to, the general back-alley ambience of the suite was so rotten, so incredibly foul. How long had I been lying there? All these signs of violence. What had happened? There was evidence in this room of excessive consumption of almost every type of drug known to civilized man since 1544 AD. What kind of addict would need all these coconut husks and crushed honeydew rinds? Would the presence of junkies account for all these uneaten french fries? These puddles of glazed ketchup on the bureau? Maybe so. But then why all this booze? And these crude pornographic photos smeared with mustard that had dried to a hard yellow crust? These were not the hoofprints of your average God-fearing junky. It was too savage. Too aggressive.

Some angry rotarian shoves you and you think "What's happening here? What's going on?"

You can't of had that much....I didn't tell you the half of it

I dont know how i am alive.. I should have been dead many times

How much was i meant to have
"Are you a doctor? No a student? ah Not really? ummm"
 
"We are powerful, beautiful, extraordinary. There is no reason why you cannot understand who we truly are, where are we going. There is no reason why the average individual cannot be fully empowered. We are incredibly powerful beings.”

“I think I've spent 30 years of my life, the first 30, trying to become something. I wanted to become good at things, I wanted to become good at tennis, I wanted to become good at school and grades... and everything I kind of viewed in that perspective: I'm not OK the way I am, but if I got good at things...
...and I realized that I had the game wrong. The game was to find out what I already was.”
-zeitgeist
 
"life is entirely too short to not be happy, just be sure to never pursue happiness at the cost of others. "
 
"Watch the clock it's true, you can't run out of time. You can only run in circles"
"If your going through hell, keep going"
