Here are a few from my personal collection from friends and family. As of now, I will just give first names with the exception of my professor. However, if you need them I can give you last names as well.

 

"I swear I'm narcissistic. I sleep with myself all the time." – Kyle

 

"If T.S. Elliot was a woman, my age, and alive, I would totally marry her." - Nate

 

"Cows equal methane. Methane equals global warming. Therefore, cows equal global warming." – Nate

 

"You haven't really lived until you've had a ninja try to talk to you through mime." – Eric

 

"That wasn’t from your childhood. It was from your college days and they were frightening!" – Mom (to my dad)

 

"I don’t have any brain in my blood. . . . I mean, blood in my brain." – Christine

 

"Welcome to 5 minutes ago. Please board your non-stop flight to now." – Brendon

 

"I didn’t know Hannibal Lector did yoga." – Beth

 

Will: I have a serious problem.
Beth: Wait. "s-e-r" or "s-i-r?"

 

Tom: I will shank you.
Max: Fight to the death!
Tom: The parking lot is right out there. If I’m not out in ten minutes, start without me. . . . And that is in fact what she said.
(Yes, this was a joke)

 

"Alas, so many nerdy things, so few gold pieces." – Paul

 

Me: [looking at my hand with skittle of each color] Wow, I just realized that skittles doesn’t have all of the colors of the rainbow. There is no indigo, so you can’t actually ‘taste the rainbow.’
Brandon: OMG! You’re right!
Andre: You know what? We should sue them for false advertising!

 

"If it weren’t for the gutter, my brain would be homeless." – Me

 

"Hey now, don’t be hatin’ on the Thursday crowd – we rock fo’ shizzle. . . Please tell me that was the correct etymological use for the phrase, ‘Fo’ Shizzle.’" – Beth

[Midshipman] Frank: No. I tried it the other day with my professor. I said, ‘Hoorah, sir!’ and he said, ‘You just told me to shave my mother.’

 

"If you don’t think that’s cool, then you need some coffee!" - Professor Edwards

Since they can be from anyone, I'll share some from my life. My teacher is the only one with last name given...I can give the last names to you if you need them for attribution of source.

"Bureaucracy is like an onion: you have to cut through layer after layer after layer to make any progress and you're crying the whole way through." -Mr. Hartmetz, band director.

"Band, what are you doing?! Those lines are so bad the blind people in the stands can see them!" -Mr. Hartmetz.

"Guys, just remember: if we screw up tonight, nobody's going to die. We are not surgeons, we're just a hundred and ten kids running around on the football field like idiots, blowing and pushing down buttons." -Mr. Hartmetz.

"Guys, I want you to remember: if we get beat this weekend, whoever beats us has to be -damn- good." -Mr. Hartmetz.

"Can I go to the bathroom?"
"Are you back yet?"
"What?"
"Are you back yet?"
"No, sorry. You haven't given me enough time to invent teleportation during my Teacher Assistant class. You barely give me enough time to make all the copies we need!"
-Me and Mr. Hartmetz, typical conversation.

"Green card says 'wee'. Meaning: small, minute, little, itty-bitty. I will also accept WHEEEEEEE." -Mike, during Apples to Apples.

"Kacy, what's with the Chinese accent?"
"I am French, madamoiselle."
"...did you even take French in high school?"
"Non, I took ze German."
"What a shock." -Me and my best friend's cousin, Kacy.

"Oh no! No game for two weeks?! How will we know if the children survived the golem's fall? What if the worst happens?!"
"NO! NOT CATHOLIC SCHOOl!"
-Fletcher and Chris, upon an announcement of no Dungeons and Dragons that week.

"You know that I read all of the Twilight series so I could have an educated hatred of the books? Well, when I opened the first book (I borrowed it from the school library,) a pile of glitter fell out onto my lap. I wasn't sure if it was someone with a great sense of irony or some really, REALLY crazed fangirl but it was epic. However, I had a sparkly crotch and was pretty annoyed for the rest of the day." -A typical day in the life of Alex

Eddie Izzard, the master of good quotes: "We stole countries with the cunning use of flags. Just sail around the world and stick a flag in them. Going I claim India for Britain and they go You can't claim us! We live here! All 500 million of us........ Do you have a flag?"

I still love John's quote:
"The Venn diagram of guys who don't like smart girls and guys you don't want to date is a circle."
Awesome.
