I couldn't care less if you tried to pawn it off as your own stuff. What makes threads like these interesting though is when people come in, give an example or two of some obscure fact they didn't know, and then everybody else can come back and mock them for not knowing it.

Seriously though, it bothered me alot more in the other thread, I just happened to look at this one second, and felt the need to post after looking at this one. In a thread like this what you did isn't so bad, but in the quotes thread in the El D forum, what makes that thread interesting is the way that people give a quote that's helped them, and then give a bit of background as to how/why it pertains to their life. Just giving off a huge list doesn't do that, and it just looks bad IMO.

So my apologies if I sounded like a douchebag in my first comment, I really was just making an observation about the way newcomers might post before they get the feel of the place.
