    "If money is the root of all evil, why do churches want so much fo it?"
    Don't remember who said it. Don't care, to be honest.


    My personall favorite. Never been one better:
    "The Greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."
    ---Verbal Kent, "The Usual Suspects"
    Kevin Spacey won an academy award for that role.

    Well I don't have one perticular favourite quote but here are few which I like the most

    * Every body thinks to change others, no body thinks to change himself.
    * One dark cloud is all it takes to hide the sunlight ( just like one hole is all it takes to
    sink a boat )
    * Be Bold in what you stand for and careful what you fall for ( suits me )
    * Success is never a destination - it is a journey.
    * Experience....... The name people give to their mistakes!
    * Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people
    * Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.
    * the fear is often worse than the danger itself
    and of course my signature


    But the way thanks theotheimpaler for making this nice thread
    Forgive and Forget

    A good quote is one that sounds profound but actually is so obscure that it really doesn't mean anything.

    A quote that no one understands but sounds meaningfule is optimum...

    By the way heres some quotable quotes off of an e-mail

    "Everyone has a photographic memory; some just don't have film."

    "Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day;
    teach that person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks."

    "How is it one careless match can start a forest fire,
    but it takes a whole box to start a barbecue?"
    I am da geekness

    The actual quote from teh Bible is the LOVE of money. Churches need money to pay bills and donate to charities and such.

    That reminds me of one I found some time ago....

    "Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, they're a mile away and barefoot."
    "I start to think there really is no cure for depression, that happiness is an ongoing battle, and I wonder if it isn't one I'll have to fight for as long as I live. I wonder if it's worth it."

    Or what about don't look at the finger. If you look at the finger you will miss all that heavenly beauty.

    The last time I saw this one it was in Castlevania - Symphony of The Night. Alucard was talking to Maria and Belmont.

    "Friendship often ends in love, but love in friendship ... never."
    I don't remember where I saw that, but it's so damn true.
