Day 26: Your favorite quote

(I skipped Day 25-write about a new Tumblr or whatever. I don't read those.)

My favorite quotes are currently:
"It's the ride we take, the many winged escape- it's the bough we break to blow away...It's the time we waste swallowed into space; its the time it takes to blow away."
-A Fine Frenzy

"Take with you, our memories. They're opening like summer flowers."
-Meg & Dia Frampton

"The heart may freeze or it can burn; the pain will ease if I can learn. There is no future, there is no past; I live this moment as my last. There's only us, there's only this; forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road, no other way; no day but today."
-Rent


Facebook Lawyer: Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window] No.
Facebook Lawyer: Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at the lawyer] What?
Facebook Lawyer: Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to purjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.
Facebook Lawyer: Okay - no. You don't think I deserve your attention.
Mark Zuckerberg: I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing.

Mark Zuckerberg: Did I adequately answer your condescending question?

-Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg, "The Social Network"


Norah: There's this part of Judaism that I like. Tikun Olam. It said that the world is broken into pieces and everyone has to find them and put them back together.
Nick: Maybe we don't have to find it. Maybe we are the pieces.
Norah: Nick? I'm coming in...

Thom: Look, other bands, they want to make it about sex or pain, but you know, The Beatles, they had it all figured out, okay? "I Want to Hold Your Hand." The first single. It's effing brilliant, right?... That's what everybody wants, Nicky. They don't want a twenty-four-hour hump sesh, they don't want to be married to you for a hundred years. They just want to hold your hand

Drunk Kid: Are you off duty?
Nick: This isn't a cab.
Drunk Kid: Are you off duty?
Nick: It's not a cab, my friend, I promise you.

Nick: I never wash my pants. I like to keep the night on them.

"I don't mind spending everyday out on your corner in the pouring rain; look for the girl with the broken smile, ask her if she wants to stay awhile. And she will be loved...Tap on my window knock on my door I want to make you beautiful...It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise that moves us along..I know where you hide alone in your car, know all of the things that make you who you are...Please don't try so hard to say goodbye."
-Maroon 5, "She Will Be Loved".


"Would it kill you not to be so funny all the time? That's all I'm askin'. This woman thinks I'm very funny and now you're gonna be funny, so what am I gonna be? I'm gonna be a short bald guy with glasses who suddenly doesn't seem so funny."
-George

"Who are you gonna eat to survive?"
"Kramer."
"So fast? What about me?"
"No."
"Kramer's so stringy. I'm plump, juicy."
"Kramer's got more muscle, higher protein content. It's better for you."
"Well, I would eat you."
"That's very nice, I guess."
"I still don't see why you wouldn't eat me. I'm your best friend."
"Look, if other people are having some, I'll try you."
"Thank you."
- George and Jerry, in "The Abstinence"

-"Seinfeld"

Rose: I can't believe my mother is out riding around on a smelly old bus. Being pushed around, harassed, possibly even mugged by hostile teenagers with bad haircuts!

Rose: You... you... you rude person!
Dorothy: Go easy on him, Rose.
-"The Golden Girls"
