"We're on an express elevator to Hell! Going Down!"

When life gives you lemons
Fuck life
I think this Cave Johnson...
“When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your Damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

I used to have this massive file with like hundreds of pages of stuff people said, even from average ordinary people. I wish I knew where that was. It even had stuff from shows and movies.

Oh...
A person doesn’t have to be perfect to be exactly what you need.

Nothing worth having comes easy.
 
The more you stir shit, the worse it smells. --Unknown

They say money can't buy love or happiness, but generally it can. And when it can't, it can buy some of the most remarkable substitutes. --Rhett Butler, Gone With The Wind

We're all scared. You hid in that ditch because you think there's still hope. But Blithe, the only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier's supposed to function. Without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends on it. --Captain Ronald Speirs, Band of Brothers

No matter how it starts off, it always ends up crooked. --Grandpa
 
Something I was exposed to recently by some bros.

From Three Kingdoms Chinese drama… “Chinese wisdom.”

“It’s not that my skin is thick. It’s just I’ve long since thrown out of my mind all those mundane concepts of ethics and scruples. They all call me a crafty villain. But they can’t do anything about this crafty villain either. Whereas you people who hold yourselves to be true gentlemen have all been defeated by me. If the price of being gentlemanly is to be oppressed, trampled upon, destroyed, or even killed, I’d rather be a crafty villain who can realize his own dreams and aspirations. The greatest traitor has always resembled an honest man, and the greatest falsehood come across as truth. Righteousness and evil cannot be discerned by their appearances. Perhaps in the past you decided wrongly about me, and perhaps today you misjudged me too. However, I remain myself. I have never cared about others misjudging me. Brother Gongtai, examine your heart and tell me, have I spoken truly?”
 
Heinlein provided a bounty of great quotes but this is one of my favorites:
"There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him."
 
"Space echoes like an immense tomb, yet the stars still burn. Why does the sun take so long to die?" - Nick Land

"I sing because I am a singer. But I use you for it because I need ears." - Max Stirner
 
' With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.' Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on we're all damaged. -Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek: TNG (The Drumhead)
