Senior Quote

am required to turn in my Senior High School quote this friday, and would really enjoy any reactions or ideas from the FiG community. Here is my number one choice, followed by honorable mentions. If you know of a quote that you think I might enjoy, either just by reading it or possibly for my Senior quote, or If you would like to post your senior quote, feel free.

In my experience, many quotes have been repetitive, not very interesting, not applicable to the person, or just plain dumb. As a very interesting person myself, I would like a quote that matches my baroche style.

I don't try to imagine a God; it suffices to stand in awe of the structure of the world, insofar as it allows our inadequate senses to appreciate it.- Einstein

I realize that I am a maverick, for I can settle for nothing less than the whole. It is a feeling deep in my bones and blood. It is the sense of unity of things man and nature, consciousness and matter, inner and outer, subject and object — the sense that these can be reconciled.-Anonymous

Anything too stupid to be said is sung.- Voltaire (I hate musicals!)

Death Solves All Problems-No Man, No Problem.-Joseph Stalin

That gets my vote. D

There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. - The Terminator

when i was in high school, the "quote of the day" on the announcements was often from ferris bueller's day off. watch the movie and see if you can find something interesting.

Why pay for something when you can get it from a freebee site---stockmanjr

Haahahahha, freebies.

I like the terminator, and Ferris buellers day off is a pretty funny movie. I think im gonna go Einstein or the anonymous one though.

Only you can prevent forest fires - Smokey the Bear

Workers of the world unite; you have nothing to lose but your chains. - Karl Marx

That was my senior quote

"Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can do. Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself." - William Faulkner

That one really made me laugh out loud.

A real lol.

my quote back in the day was a jack handey quote....I had narrowed it down to two (I chose the one in bold)

[bc98ab48a46]Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.[/bc98ab48a46]

and also

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Everyone seemed to get a kick out of the quote and that's good, I didn't want to be too serious........

I also like this Oscar Wilde quote...it's fitting for a senior quote I think

Why was I born with such contemporaries?

Lol, my english teacher has a poster full of dumb bush quotes.

I believe mine was one of these quotes

Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas.

either that or

One death is a tragedy; a million is a statistic.

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.


I guess that most Americans aren't smart enough to realize that he was saying that our government is also able to think of ways that terrorists might try to attack us (what you might call forward thinking)......that or/and people just don't like the president.


just wanted to point that out. D

People are smart enough to figure that out, otherwise they wouldn't make fun of that quote..
