Quote:
birdbrain92 said: Violence doesn't cure weakness, inner strength and self control does. Training your mind to think categorically. Discarding negative thoughts is vital. Fear is a reaction, courage is a decision. The competency to control ones thoughts is to control ones destiny.
This first part contains quotes from other people but it wasn't intentionally done that way i just read quotes a lot

Well, as my avatar might suggest, I'm a HUGE Myst fan. Therefore, I've always loved the quote, "Perhaps the ending has not yet been written." Kinda like, "No matter how bad shit gets, it can always change."

not neccesarily a quate just an idea i guess.... What if tis "conscience" state we are in is only the base of reality or what we once thaught was, is dreamland...and when we dream...that is our reality. maybe what we perceive as real is just created in our 'dreams' (now reality)and played back for us when we awaken and if we never dreamed then all reality would be lost? yeah think about that one for a minute lol

I love these kinds of quotes. There's also a bunch of good ones by Carlin, but it looks like you guys already got that covered.

I like this quote because it references the idea of evolution some 1400 years before Darwin. Zen is something completely not what I’m honouring replying to your buffoonery.
