Literary Passages/Quotes
 

Guess what!

(Insert your guess here)

NOPE! Your guess was WRONG!!

The correct answer: I have a school project for English. I have to assemble a scrapbook filled with various "Quotes" "Literary Passages" "Song Lyrics" Etc.

Anyone wanna give me a hand? Just post some of your favorite quotes and stuff here. Please?

I'll pay you in...exclamation points. "!"

Here's a nice one from Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged:

"That which you call your soul or spirit is your consciousness, and that which you call 'free will' is your mind's freedom to think or not, the only will you have, your only freedom, the choice that controls all the choices you make and determines your life and your character."

I suggest you use this page to find others.

There's also wikiquote, or whatever wikipedia's quotation page is called.

Thanks, I'm gonna use that one! I believe I owe you $!!.

Yeah, I've checked a bunch of other sources. But I figured GFF would yield some pretty unique passages. (And therefore a good grade for yours truly)

"If you give a man fire, he's warm for the night. If you set a man on fire, he is warm for the rest of his life." - Terry Pratchett


""I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."

"But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It proves you exist, and so therefore, you don't. Q.E.D.."

"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.

"Oh, that was easy," says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing." - From Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

"There's always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck.
(don't reach out, don't reach out)
Steer away from these rocks
We'd be a walking disaster.
(don't reach out, don't reach out)" - Radiohead, "There There."
