    A Quote that fits you.

    Just Post a quote from you, Someone you admire or just someone that you know off.
    Only pretense is that it must describe aspects of you or you as a whole.

    "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science" - Charles Darwin
    Its about my love of knowledge and Understanding thing and frustration at those ignorant of science.
    "Hail them as the bane of Chaos, Fear them for they watch for Heresy"



    "It will be through our blood and our faith that our survival will be assured, Sisters."
    "What is better - to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" - Paarthunax, Skyrim.
    This is single line encompasses why i have a non-sexual appreciation of the Adepta Sorirtas. Through Great Effort, The sisters have acheived near incorruptibility without the use of massive genetic augmentation and mind-wipes. Through Iron Will, They have conquered their Human nature.

    A couple good ones from the movie "V for Vendetta," which is way more quotable than it gets credit for.


    V: "There is no certainty -- only opportunity."


    Hammond: "Is everything a joke to you?"
    Dietrich: "Only the things that matter."


    V (quoting Macbeth): "I dare do all that may become a man; who dares more is none."


    Evey Hammond: Are you like a... crazy person?
    V: I'm quite sure they will say so.

    V: Violence can be used for good.
    Evey Hammond: What are you talking about?
    V: Justice.
    Evey Hammond: Oh. And are you going to kill more people?
    V: Yes.


    Evey Hammond: [reads] Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici.
    V: [translates] By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.


    Evey Hammond: My father was a writer. You would've liked him. He used to say that artists use lies to tell the truth, while politicians use them to cover the truth up.
    V: A man after my own heart.



    I could do more, but.... well that's enough. Fucking love V for Vendetta.

    It tells both of my raunchy tongue in cheek aggression, and my secret yearning for acceptance.

    Why do you ask what, when the delicious question is when?

    A lot of things Voltaire says ring true to me, but these in particular... These I tend to follow every day of my life.

    "I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it."

    "Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game."

    "The instruction we find in books is like fire. We fetch it from our neighbours, kindle it at home, communicate it to others, and it becomes the property of all."

    Stand as tall as the trees, stay as sweet as a summer breeze.
