"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name ofcharity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."

Ezekiel 25:17 (from Pulp Fiction)

I hope we're just posting quotes in general, not philosophy quotations. :p

"My boss asked if I was doing anything about the hole in my cheek. I told him I put my finger over it when I drank coffee so that it wouldn't leak."


"Our generation has had no Great Depression, no Great War. Our war is spiritual. Our depression is our lives."


"You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else."
All from Fight Club

Along the lines of Fight Club, I'd like to add

You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fuckin' khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.

"Life is short, break a few rules..."


"It is better to regret the things that you have done, then the things that you haven't"

From the Onion:

"I don't know why kids keep smoking after we tell them it's a dangerous thing meant for adults."

Voltaire:

"Tobacco is the pleasure of simple folk, and those who live without tobacco don't deserve to live."

Nietzsche:

"But to stand in the middle of this rerum concordia discors and the whole marvellous uncertainty and ambiguity of existence without questioning, without trembling with the rapture of questioning, ...that is what I feel to be contemptible…"

Actually, this is not in the bible as a whole... It is a compilation of Psalm 23 ( valley of darkness), with proverbs, with Isaiah, Ezekial, and Genesis (story of Cain and Abel).

Everything is a matter of perspective

Opinion is subjective, therefore irrelevant.

Intelligence tends to prove its own stupidity after a while.

-Richard Dawkins
