ellen_fremedon, plus I saw it first on florahart's lj and yeah, I think it's cool.
Go here and look through random quotations until you find 5 that you think reflect who you are or what you believe.
(I cheated a little--added two extra, and subbed two quotes I didn't get from the site in order to avoid using two from the same person, and to use one I really wanted.)
When I get a little money I buy books, and if any is left I buy food and clothes. -Erasmus
Whoever does not love his work cannot hope that it will please others. -Unknown
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. -Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love"
God used to be the best explanation we'd got, and we've now got vastly better ones. God is no longer an explanation of anything, but has instead become something that would itself need an insurmountable amount of explaining. -Douglas Adams
Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. -Abraham Lincoln
Reality continues to ruin my life. -Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes
Everything you can imagine is real. -Pablo Picasso
And also consistent with my beliefs, I'm tagging...anyone who wants to do it. ^_^
