If it's yellow, let it mellow.
If it's brown, flush it down.

[ QUOTE ]
So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.

[/ QUOTE ]

From the same movie is my favorite quote:
"It's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just dont care"

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance" - Thomas Jefferson

Though, I just found this one and i really like it:

"It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.
War endures. As well ask men what they think of stone.
War was always here. Before man was, war waited for him.
The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.
That is the way it was and will be.
That way and not some other way...
War is the ultimate game because war is at last a forcing
of the unity of existence. War is god...
Men of god and men of war have strange affinities."


More of a passage than a quote, but you can pick any sentence in there and it would still be a great singular quote. In fact, i think i'm going to bust it out the next time it's appropriate.

"Are you ready to order, sir?"
"Before man was, war waited for him."
"Ok i'll come back, then"

Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not now that strength which in the old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal-temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

-- "Ulysses," by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."

-- The Bhagavad-Gita, quote by Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer



"Let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look, but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha! And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, [censored]' ass off! He's a tight-ass! He's a sadist! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? Never!"

-- Al Pacino in Devil's Advocate



"I took the liberty of fertilizing your caviar."

-- Dr. Zoidberg

Yes.

"No one in this world, so far as I know—and I have researched the records for years, and employed agents to help me—has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby."
