Uncommon words of wisdom

Comment ID #68137

What words of wisdom have you learned? I am not talking the usual “Don’t run with scissors” stuff. Maybe you can help prevent someones misfortune. Here is one to get started:

Don’t buy games based off of movies.

Generally, they suck. It generally goes in this pattern (Worst to best).
Movies, TV shows, Books, Script only for that game.

Goering: “Of course the people don’t want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don’t want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.”
Gilbert: “There is one difference. In a democracy the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in the United States only Congress can declare wars.”
Goering: “Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”
- Herman Goering and Gustave Gilbert

“If you’re gonna do something, do it well, and leave something *unintelligible*. Leave a sign to let the world know that you were there.”
- Charles Manson

Caboose: “Hey Church, ever wonder why we’re here?”

Church: “You know, Caboose, I use to not care. I just went along with orders and hoped that everything would work out for me. But after all that has happened, you know what I learned? It’s not about hating the guy on the other side because someone told you to. I mean, you should hate someone because they’re an asshole, or pervert, or snob, or they’re lazy, or arrogant, or an idiot, or a know-it-all. Those are reasons to dislike somebody. You don’t hate a person because someone told you to. You have to learn to despise them on a personal level. Not because they’re Red, or Blue, but because you know them, and you see them every single day, and you can’t stand them because they are a complete and total fucking douchebag.”


Leonard Church-final episode of “RVB:the blood gulch chronicles”

Church’s first name is Leonard?. And good to know that my disappoint post wasn’t ignored.

If you ever find yourself in an extensional quandary, full of loathing and self doubt, just remember that there’s a little place called Albuquerque.

I like that because it’s a Weird Al quote and I’ve lived in Albuquerque. In my experience, the words make sense.

(im serious again today…. )
though we are adrift in an uncaring void of a universe, we are each a huge part of that universe to at least one other lost wanderer.

i had a 2 year existential crisis about the whole “uncaring void thing“ whe i was 9 and 10.

“The hopeful have something to fight for, but the hopeless have nothing to lose… and you know damn well which one is stronger even if you don’t want to believe it.” - Describing my motivation for why I fight.

“If pain makes men stronger, then I should be able to move mountians” - a quote about my life.

“It dosen’t matter if you win or lose, what matters is if I win or lose…” - After I lost my first boxing match at the championship finals.

“I consider my personality as a canvas that is free for those around me to paint on. If you dispise me, then maybe the artist is to blame.” - When people ask about why I’m so angry, depressed, etc.

“They say if you can think it, you can be it. Well I know a lot of kids who though they could be Superman. They wern’t doing a lot of thinking when they hit the ground after that fall from the Empire State Building…” - after a motivational lecture from my dad.

“Why in the hell do they always make it so fucking hard to put on a god damn NECKLACE!?” - Me in the middle of trying for three hours to put on my favorite necklace.

“Quotes are just fancy ways of stating the obvious”
-Gerald Prunty, Sleepfighting

Alternatively,

“But quotations and aphorisms are generally just verbal Christmas presents; enticingly done up in pretty paper and ribbons, but once you get them open they generally turn out to be just socks.”
-Tom Holt Barking (2007)
