Epic Quotes

[Gremlin]

This is the place for all those amazing quotes that you've been dying to tell someone.

Any kind of quote you have... be it book, movie, or just something you heard somewhere... it's fine here.

As a ground rule, let's try to keep it to one quote per post. Just to keep people from immediately taking all the "good" quotes. =P

So... here's one.

"It says that the effect of drinking a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick."
- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

[Briana]

These are all from my favorite book in the world, Life of Pi.

"To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation."

"My greatest wish - other than salvation - was to have a book."

And, the best quote in the world,

"Don't you bully me with your politeness! Love is hard to believe, ask any lover. Life is hard to believe, ask any scientist. God is hard to believe, ask any believer. What is your problem with hard to believe?"

My librarian wanted me to add this one "Careful... or you'll be the next goat." That's her favourite from Life of Pi.

[Payne Ford]

Careful... You don't want to be saying that quote in Wales. You might alarm someone.

[Psyche]

That book is amazing.

argh, that first one (and all surrounding remarks abou agnostics) pissed me off so much.

i met him when he did a reading at my school and came ridiculously close to expressing this publically, but managed to bite my tongue, although my poor friend katie heard a lot rom me about it on the walk back to the dorm. ;)

overall, quite a good book, and yann martell seem's like a really intelligent, thoughtful guy -- but his remarks on agnosticism were clever at best, and really didn't show deep consideration on the subject at all. basically, it came down to him using pascal's bet...and i think he could have done better.

[emmet]

ahhh.

seem's=seems.

good grief.

i'm sorry everyone. i have let you down.

[Rion]

shame on you.
Shaaaaame.
You will never, ever be forgiven.

[Mike Alven Childress]

The agnostic quote pissed me off too.

[Amelia...]

"It's five o'clock and time for the penguin on top of your television to explode."
