 Eh, just quotes about any subject and from any era.

"When we abandon the thought of immortality we at least have cast out fear.  We gain a certain dignity and self-respect.  We regard our fellow-travellers as companions in the pleasures and tribulations of life.  We feel an interest in them, knowing that we are all moved by common implodes and touched by mutual understanding.  We gain kinship with the world.  Our neighbors and friends and we ourselves are traveling the same route to a common doom.  No one can feel this universal relationship without being gentler, kindlier, and more humane toward all the infinite forms of beings that live with us, and must die with us." ~ Clarence Darrow

"There is no other aim in life for any man or for any woman than this: happiness. There is no other goal or intent in life." ~ Elbert Hubbard

 "Doubt everything. Find your own light."

-Last words of Gotama Buddha, in Theravada tradition

"Ubi dubium ibi libertas:

Where there is doubt, there is freedom"

-Latin proverb

"Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking; where it is absent, discussion is apt to become worse than useless."

-Leo Tolstoy (On Life and Essays on Religion)

"I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here....

I don't have to know the answer. I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way it really is as far as I can tell. It doesn't frighten me."

-Richard Feynman (interview with Christopher Sykes, in "The Pleasure of Finding Things Out," BBC-TV, 1981

I have some quotes. You should check out my post and leave a comment about Game of Thrones  (Click Here)



Tyrion Lannister: "As rich as a Lannister."

 



Syrio Forel: "What do we say to the God of Death?" 

Arya Stark: "Not today."

 



Tyrion Lannister: "A Lannister always pays his debts."

 



Lysa Tully: "You don't fight with honor! " 

Bronn: "No. (pointing where his dead opponent fell) He did."

 



Daenerys Targaryen: "He was no dragon. Fire cannot kill a dragon."

 



Robb Stark: "Winter is Coming For You!"

 



Jon Snow: "Stick 'em with the pointy end."

 



Bronn: "Give me ten good men and some climbing spikes...I'll impregnate the bitch."

 



Cersei Lannister: (to Ned Stark) "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground."

 



 

"There is no such thing as a plea of innoocence in my court.

A plea of innocence is guilty of wasting my time. GUILTY!

Inquisitor Lord Draco of Adepta Sororitas

 



We are looking for players to join to ba aggressive Admirals to lead my fleets across the Galaxy. 

 

Saint Mina of Ophelia VII ofOrderof the Bloody Rose of Orders Militant ofAdepta Sororitas

 

When our Enemies win a battle, they called a Victory, 

but when Saint Mina, Our Living Saint wins a battle, our Emenies called a Massacre. 

No Mercy!  No Respite!
