Favorite quotes

I thought it might be fun to start a thread for some of our favorite quotes. I'll kick it off:



"Consciousness is what we see with and what is seen. Consciousness is life energy, vibrating with awareness and moved by a motivating will power (Life Force).

The nature of consciousness is to express itself through polarity and diversity and to experience itself through unity and relativity.

The function of consciousness is to balance it's inherent forces and evolve natural patterns of life energy that are a reflection of itself.

Laws of consciousness state that:

Consciousness goes where it is directed.

Consciousness sees only that which is of itself.

Consciousness evolves according to the interest in it and by the willingness to grow from it." Malcolm Strutt.



"Whenever you do something, do it as a piece of art. Otherwise just don't do it. Let everything express the creativity of you." Yogi Bhajan



"The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games and the daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path" P. Floyd

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our ass... then things get worse.

There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.

"If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible,
all things." Rene Descartes

Never underestimate the other guys greed...Scarface (the movie)

and last but not least,

"worrying never solved anything. If you worry and something happens, your worrying didn't help. And if you worry and nothing happens, you worried for nought." Yours truly

No matter where you go, there you are.
(I can't remember who said that :confused: )

This too shall pass.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. (I think that's an original sweany remark (I could be wrong))

Don't sweat the small stuff.

If a windmill pumps water, what exactly does a sawmill pump?

Duct tape, it's the next best thing to fixing it.

I've never met a man I didn't like.

I'll be back.

You're one ugly #$%&@#*&$#@&

Frankly Scarlet, I don't give a ####!

Not like this.

I swear, I didn't kill anyone!

The CIA got you pushing too many pencils.

I didn't do it all.

I never had sex with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky.

That's one small step for man. One giant leap for mankind.

Ok, I'll quit.

Sex is like air. It's not important unless you aren't getting any.

Max that's a Steven Wright original - ac ouple more from Steven the great

I had to stop driving my car for a while...the tires got dizzy...

I put instant coffee in my microwave oven and almost went back in time.

"Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time."

"I saw a man with a wooden leg, and a real foot."

"Winny and I lived in a house that ran on static electricity... If you wanted to run the blender, you had to rub balloons on your head."

I used to be a bartender at the Betty Ford Clinic.

In the same vein two old Sicilian proverbs -

"Revenge is a dish best served cold"

"Revenge is a season in hell"

Quite a disparity of thought there.

When you choose to wrestle with a gorilla, you don't stop when you want to, you stop when the gorilla wants to. ?
