Default The Official Quote Thread

Got any quotes you absolutely love? I think each week I'm going to choose quote themes.

This week, it can be quotes about getting through hard times, beating the odds.

If you don't want to follow a theme that's fine, but it will make the thread more lively if it's not exhausted too quickly.

It can be from anything, book, movie, friend, family, celebrity, etc...

My quote:

"Sadness is a season, it will pass." - Power of One

I've got tons of them but here is one that keeps to the theme you have picked out this week.
“If we're ever gonna see a rainbow we have to stand a little rain (from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Stand A Little Rain” lyrics by Don Schlitz, Donny Lowery)

I'll post a sonnet! I'm going above and beyond! I'm a big poetryface

"If this be love, to draw a weary breath,
To paint on floods till the shore cry to th'air;
With downward looks still reading on the earth.
These sad memorials of my love's despair;
If this be love, to war against my soul,
Lie down to wail, rise up to sigh and grieve,
The never-resting stone of care to roll,
Still to complain my griefs, whilst none relieve;
If this be love, to clothe me with dark thoughts,
Haunting untrodden paths to wail apart,
My pleasures horror, music tragic notes,
Tears in mine eyes and sorrow at my heart;
If this be love, to live a living death,
Then do I love, and draw this weary breath."

Samuel Daniel (1562-1619)

"If it were not for quotations, conversation between gentlemen would consist of an endless succession of 'what-ho's" - PG Wodehouse

Basically, I love quotations and this thread .

On life, sadness and all that mother jazz, this one seems to suit my mood at present -

"To make a goal of comfort or happiness has never appealed to me; a system of ethics built on this basis would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle" - Einstein

Oh I love this.

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” - Dr. Seuss.

"You'd better keep it in check or you'll end up a wreck and you'll never wake up" - Brian Molko of Placebo, the lyrics to "Narcoleptic".
