The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.(G-Man - Half-Life)

You reap what you sow, Artyom. Force answers force, war breeds war, and death only brings death. To break this vicious circle one must do more than just act without any thought or doubt. (Khan - Metro 2033)

whoops - not fitting anything you are looking for - but I just damn like these two quotes :D

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber barons cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience" - C.S. Lewis

I really like this quote, which is sort of weird, considering I have no love for CS Lewis himself.

This fits in with celebrating life, in a large-scale sense -- Ed Mitchell on seeing the Earth from the Moon:
You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, "Look at that, you son of a bitch."

And here are a few quotes related to difficult times, from the privately-printed sayings of a man named John A. Shedd:
“When it is rose leaves all the way, we soon become drowsy; thorns are necessary to wake us."
"We have strength for today’s work. If yesterday’s is added, we stagger; if we try to carry tomorrow’s, down we go."
"A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for."

Thanks for the giveaways!

When do you think people die? When they are shot through the heart by the bullet of a pistol? No. When they are ravaged by an incurable disease? No. When they drink a soup made from a poisonous mushroom!? No! It’s when... they are forgotten.

All from a game I've recently spent some time in

  • It's just a bad day, not a bad life.
  • If i had a dollar for every girl that found me unattractive, they would eventually find me attractive.
  • I'm great at multitasking. I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at once.
  • I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not too sure.
  • A recent study has found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than the men who mention it.
  • Today a man knocked on my door and asked for a small donation towards the local swimming pool. I gave him a glass of water.

Laws aren't changeless, holy words. Every country in the world has their own. It's just somebody with a lot of power applying their own will. It depends on the person whether they'll serve someone else blindly, or apply their own will. - Thomas Angelo (Mafia : City of Lost Heaven)

You know, the world isn't run by the laws written on paper. It's run by people. Some according to laws, others not. It depends on each individual how his world will be, how he makes it. And you also need a whole lot of luck, so that somebody else doesn't make your life hell. And it ain't as simple as they tell you in grade school. But it is good to have strong values and to maintain them. In marriage, in crime, in war, always and everywhere. I messed up. So did Paulie and Sam. We wanted a better life, but in the end we were a lot worse off than most other people. You know, I think it's important to keep a balance in things. Yeah, balance, that's the right word. Because the guy who wants too much risks losing absolutely everything. Of course, the guy who wants too little from life, might not get anything at all. - Thomas Angelo (Mafia : City of Lost Heaven)

You can't blame gravity for falling in love - Albert Einstein

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking. - Marcus Aurelius

If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door. - Milton Berle.

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. - Confucius.

Don't take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive. - Elbert Hubbard

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm schizophrenic, and so am I - Oscar Levant

I love mankind, it's the people I can't stand. - Charles M. Schulz.

Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die. - Mel Brooks.

Life is hard. After all, it kills you. - Katharine Hepburn.
