Quotations Meme

[rj_anderson]

Gacked from lizbee by way of everybody else:

Go here and look through random quotes until you find 5 that you think reflect who you are or what you believe. Repost in your journal.

1. The unexamined life is not worth living.
- Socrates (469 BC - 399 BC)

2. I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.
- Dr. Seuss (1904 - 1991)

3. There are two modes of establishing our reputation: to be praised by honest men, and to be abused by rogues. It is best, however, to secure the former, because it will invariably be accompanied by the latter.
- Charles Caleb Colton (1780 - 1832)

4. The truth is the kindest thing we can give folks in the end.
- Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811 - 1896)

5. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
- The Bible (Philippians 1:21)

And now I'm off to work on Chapter Ten...

ObConcatenation: Have you seen the Dr Seuss Bible (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiT6jztxUfI)?

Amen to #5.

Isn't it the best meme ever?

And your mood picture is thinking so very hard. I just watched "The Visitation". I think I'm in mourning for the sonic screwdriver. And coveting Nyssa's boots.

I also covet Nyssa's boots, except that I can no longer wear more than a 1" heel without my right knee announcing in no uncertain terms that it hates me. Sigh.

Did I not tell you about the Fifth Doctor's guilty love affair with guns? I need to make another icon out of the scene where he levels the pistol across his arm and sights down it for no good reason whatsoever.

He's such a secret gun nut. He probably has tattered old issues of Guns and Ammo hidden under his mattress.

He also needs a haircut.

He also needs a haircut.

Constantly. Why do you think I was compelled to write an entire STORY just to give him one?

[lizbee.livejournal.com]

Good point. Good point.

And the tightness of his pants really worries me.

In all honesty, this was not something I had noticed, but I'll take your word for it. :)
