Famous Quotes: - From the Green Arrow Comics

"I'm sort of a specialist myself. I shoot green arrows. Therefore, instead of Captain Pectorals or the Incredible Moose, they call me... Green Arrow. And as such, I'm not exactly chopped liver"

"Evenin', Ma'am. Team Arrow is pleased to offer a new service to all of our Star City subscribers. For no additional costs, you're free to administer a few strategic kicks to your would-be assailant here. And when I say strategic, I mean his crotch."

"I shot him in the shoulder out of pure instinct. And in the solar plexus to get his attention. And in the trachea to see if he'd even feel it. And then I shot him in the face. Just to piss him off"

"So unless you and all your little would-be corporate dictator buddies want to go to prison -- real prison, by the way. Federal prison. Sadies Hawkins Dance, and the-worst-part-of-Deliverance prison -- you'll do exactly what I say!"

"Yeah -- that's me!! Vigilante, mayor, playboy, hypocrite. And the guy with swords to your throat... now let's talk about limits..."

Quotes that I enjoy:

You can mouth the words of a prayer all day long and just waste your time, unless you also speak with your heart. And to speak with your heart means to embody first. If you pray for love, be loving. If you pray for wealth, be generous. If you pray for health, practice health yourself. What is your favorite prayer? How can you begin to embody it?



"You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself."

- Paul Varjak, Breakfast at Tiffany's

Many folks want to serve God, but only as advisers.
The only thing you have to do is breathe. Everything else is just optional.
No one should live by the early bird policy without finding out whether he classifies as a bird or a worm.
Power works best in the hands of those who don't want it.
A stand can be made against invasion of an army; no stand can be made against invasion of an idea.
The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true.
What is the most important thing to learn in chemistry? Never lick the spoon.
No one is responsible for all the things that happen to him, but he is responsible for the way he acts when they do happen.

Relationships don't work the way they do on television and in the movies, 'will they? won't they?' and then they finally do and they're happy forever, give me a break. Nine-out-of-ten of them end because they weren't right for each other to begin with, and half the ones that get married, get divorced anyway.
And I'm telling you right now, through all this stuff, I have not become a cynic, I haven't. Yes I do happen to believe that love is mainly about pushing chocolate covered candy and you know, in some cultures a chicken. You can call me a sucker, I don't care, 'cause I do...believe in it.
Bottom line...the couples that are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but, the big difference is, they don't let it take them down. One of those two people will stand up and fight for that relationship every time, if it's right and they're real lucky. One of them will say something.

God doesn't create faulty life. No. Everything created by God is perfect, and so are you. So stop driving yourself mad with endless ways to improve, and just accept the glory of your being as is.

"When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, "Why god? Why me?" and the thundering voice of God answered, "There's just something about you that pisses me off."
-Stephen King-

"Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut."
-Ernest Hemmingway-

"The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you."
-Rita Mae Brown-

Some people say that the glass is half empty. Others say that it’s half full. But I say, “Who the hell drank my soda!?”

"Well the stairs sound so lonely without you
and I ain't made my bed in a week
Coffee stains on the paper I'm writing
and I'm too choked up inside to speak

And yes, I know that our differences pulled us apart
we never spoke a word heart to heart
And I'm glad that you're gone
but I wish to the Lord that you'd come home"
from Pancho's Lament

"...blame is just a lazy person's way of making sense of chaos. "
(All Families Are Psychotic)

"I think if human beings had genuine courage, they'd wear their costumes every day of the year, not just on Halloween. Wouldn't life be more interesting that way? And now that I think about it, why the heck don't they? Who made the rule that everybody has to dress like sheep 364 days of the year? Think of all the people you'd meet if they were in costume every day. People would be so much easier to talk to - like talking to dogs."
— Douglas Coupland (The Gum Thief: A Novel)

"Compromise is said to be the way of the world and yet I find myself feeling sick trying to accept what it has done to me."
— Douglas Coupland (Life After God)

It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

Seven sins of life: Politics without principle. Commerce without morality. Wealth without work. Education without character. Science without humanity. Pleasure without conscience. Worship without sacrifice.

There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.

To get profit without risk, experience without danger, and reward without work is as impossible as it is to live without being born.

The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

No sense being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.
