What's your favorite quote?

There's no particular reason why I started this discussion. But... Anyone feeling a little down recently? Most quotes are rather inspiring, aren't they? Sometimes, just reading them will make you reflect on yourself or others. I dunno... I always think of some quotes when I feel a little hopeless.

So here's a list! To funny-and-maybe-a-little-weird to beautifully/inspiring ones! (Maybe not in that order xD)

Let's begin with my favourite one! ^^

''No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.''

''Use your smile to change the world, but don't let the world change your smile.''

''No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.''

''Be who you are and say what you feel 'cause those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.''

''People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.''

''Life is like a camera. Focus on what's important and you'll capture it perfectly.''

''Winners never quit, and quitters never win.''

''Yesterday. You said tomorrow.''

''The only time 'succes' comes before 'work' is in the dictionary.''

''Work hard in silence, let your succes be your noise.''

''The best revenge is massive succes.''

''All that's necessary for the triumph of 'evil' is that the 'good' people do nothing.''

''Stupidity killed the cat. Curiosity got framed.''

You say I'm not cool. But cool is another word for cold.
If I'm not cold, I'm hot. I know I'm hot.
Thanks for acknowledging it.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

If you think things can't get worse, it's probably because you lack sufficient imagination.


Life.

Is the art of drawing without an eraser.

@MissMinew I understand! I'm Chinese and some quotes sound so amazing in Chinese. But when I try to translate them for my friends, it just sounds wrong :( That's such a pity T^T I understood your quote though! Awesome ^^

By Oscar Wilde: "We are all lying in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." (which I have an edited version tattoo-ed already)
By Raplh Waldo Emerson: "Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail."
Mik Everett: "If a writer falls in love with you, you can never die."
Dalai Lama: "If you can't help others, at least don't hurt them."
And a quote from one of Tao's (ex-EXO) songs: "Took off the Angel's halo and put a crown on my head." (which I'm also getting tattoo-ed soon)

My fave quote is written in old Danish and is quote from philosopher Soren Kierkegaard. Translated it goes a little like this; "people understand me so little that they don't understand why I complain about them not understanding me". I'm not the best at translating this quote however, but there is a lot of things in this. I just find it very inspiring in a strange way.

My favorite is from this anime opening lol "Dreams aren't meant to dreamed. They're meant to be fulfilled." But I definitely needed the boost. Thanks for posting this. :)

Oh, I just remembered another one going along the lines of "let people talk bad behind your back, you're already in front of them". I'm not really sure about its correct wording, though.

(New to this function, I'm usually still using the old AFF... I didn't mean to send that one right away...)
Anyways, on the more depressing side, there'd be a quote by Hinder going "Falling feels like flying 'til you hit the ground". That's another one I really like. I'm usually always torn between those two, though lately I definitely favor Shinedown's quote.

There's a band called Shinedown (not sure if you know them), but they have some nice quotes. My favorite one by them is "I own my story, I won't say sorry, and neither should you."
