Thought I might post a few quotes/Facebook statuses in here. They're all from converstations between me and my various family members...although the majority of them feature my sister, Mim or The Jedi Clone.
*watching the Pride and Prejudice with Keira Knightly*
Mr. Darcy, at the end: "I am incandescently happy." *kisses Lizzie's nose*
Mim: "Did he just kiss her nose?!"
Mom: "Well, he's incandescently happy. Like a lightbulb. Maybe he thought she was Rudolph."
My 6yo sister, talking with my dad about why she wants glasses so badly: "I can't *read*, daddy. I want glasses so I can read!"
None of us told her the real reason she couldn't read is because she doesn't know how.
Mim has been trying to convince me that the second and third Hunger Games movies are going to be musicals.
Me: *scoffs* "Where and when did you hear that?"
Mim: "Um, last Sunday. On the internet."
Me: "...that explains everything. Last Sunday was April Fool's day."
Mim: "...oh."
Mom: *comes into my room* "You are the only girl I know who would do their writing assignment on 'paintballing'."
*leaves*
Me: *yelling down the hall* "...does this mean I get an A?!"
Me: "Can I put the game on, dad? The Sharks are losing and I want to see if they can make a comeback."
Dad: "How do you know?"
Me: *holds up phone*
Dad: "Oh. Well. Any girl who has an NHL app on her phone can turn on the game at any time." *hands me the remote*
*after getting a haircut*
Me: *bounces around the room, showing off my short hair*
Mim: "Are you seriously bouncing around?"
Me: "I'm PRANCING!!! There's a difference, you know."
While watching the Order of the Phoenix with my brother and sister...
Brother: "I don't get this."
Mim: *launches into an in depth description of what is going on and why*
Brother: "Ya know what? Forget it. You obviously need a PHD in Wizardry to get this. I'm going to bed."
Me: *whining about something*
Mim: "What's up with you?"
Me: "I am a horrible horrible human being."
Mim: "Oh. That's nice."
Me: "..."
The last one, featuring our very own Rosie Posie...
Me: "I AM SO HUNGRY." *noms on the llama plushie*
Rose: "CANNIBALISM. o.o"
Me: "Um, no. I'm not a llama, so no cannibalism."
Rose: "YOU ARE TOO A LLAMA. You're just in denial. You need to embrace your heritage. "
Me: "e.o"
Rose: "Lia the Llama has a very nice ring to it."

"...when my heart is overwhwlemed, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I."
-Pslam 61:2
*Eric and Topanga have gone on a diet together, but are keeping it a secret; Cory thinks the reason Topanga is acting differently is that she's pregnant*
Eric: *to Topanga* "Look, in a few months, everything's gonna be back to normal, okay?"
Cory: "All right, Eric. What's going on?"
Eric: "Hey, Cor. You smell like chicken."
Cory: "Don't change the subject. I know Topanga confided in you. What did she tell you?"
Eric: "She told me that she's in trouble and it's all your fault. Your waffles and butter did this to her."
Cory: "Why would Topanga confide in you instead of her own husband?"
Eric: "Because she knew how you'd react."
Cory: "You mean like this? *screams* My life is over! *back to normal voice* Like that?"
Eric: "That's why she came to me, okay? People like us have similar appetites, that's how we get into situations like this."
Cory: "You've been in this situation before?"
Eric: "Yeah, on and off since high school."
Cory: "Do Mom and Dad know?"
Eric: "Yeah, Mom and Dad know. Dad actually thinks it's kinda funny
*laughs*
Cory: "Oh, no, Eric. There is nothing funny about this. Every day she gets bigger, my life gets a little more complicated."
Eric: "Your life? Is that all you can think about? What about Topanga, huh? What is she supposed to do? Her body's out of control and she has nowhere to turn! Look, if you can't be supportive then the best possible thing for you to do is just stay away from her. Just stay away from her!"
Cory: *hysterical* "I don't know what I should do!"

For my calligraphy class I had to find a Roman or Greek quote to write out and while I was searching I found I few that I really liked, so I thought I'd share them
"Better a cautious commander, and not a rash one".--Augustus
"I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 96% how I react to it".--Scipio Africanus
“The wounds of love can only be healed by the one who made them.”-- Publilius Syrus
"'He means well' is useless unless he does well."--Plautus
"I would rather be adorned by beauty of character than jewels. Jewels are the gift of fortune, while character comes from within."--Plautus
always be humble and kind

Not much of a quote, but the main slogan of the political reforms in Japan during the Great Depression-time period was "Gekokuj," Which, translated means "The lower rules the higher"
Then there's the obvious "The ends justify the means." ~Niccolo Machiavelli
and the 3rd stanza of the Marine Corps Hymn:
"If the Army and the Navy
were to look on Heaven's scenes
They will find the streets are guarded
by United States Marines."
no longer active. every once in a while ill pop back for the memories. good to see a few recognizable names 🙂
"Like a shooting star across the sky
You kissed the clouds and softly sighed, "Goodnight."
And so I stare into the galaxy
And traced the path that used to be
Used to be your light
I tried to make the seconds last
Pretend the moment hasn't passed
But wishing on a fallen star
Won't change the truth of where you are.Still I miss you
And I wish you
Everything the heavens hold
I pray with all my mind
Still I miss you
And I wish you
Everything the heavens hold
And when you go to sleep tonight
Your soul is
Finally free."

If you can fly, don't stop at the sky, 'cause there's footprints on the moon!--
Owl City, "Thy Yacht Club."
The glory of God is man fully alive--St. Iraneus

The indications reveal
That few of us realize life is quite surreal
So if you're dying to see
I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity.
Owl City, "Angels."
My heart stops without you
There's something about you
That makes me feel alive.
Owl City, "Honey and the Bee."
And the Lord looks down and He understands
The world draws up it's lines
But at the foot of the cross there's room for everyone
And love that is not blind
Rich Mullins, "Everyman."
It is the sea that makes the sailor
And the land that shapes the sea
And I do not know yet what I am made of
Or all I may someday be
It is the wood that makes a carpenter
It's the very tools of his trade
And it is love that makes a lover
And a cross that makes a saint
Rich Mullins, "The Breaks."
The glory of God is man fully alive--St. Iraneus

"Good alone is good, without a name; vileness is so; The property by what it is should go, Not by the title." -- William Shakespeare
“Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell.
Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace,
Yet Grace must still look so.” -- William Shakespeare

“All my life Ive felt like there was some part of me missing and I felt that everyone could tell, like there was some hole in me and everyone could see through it, like I wasn’t finished or something.”

"To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep--
To sleep--perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause." -- Shakespeare's Hamlet.
