Post funny, amusing, interesting, bizarre and unusual quotes. Preferably originals, but famous/tv ones will do (at a push). I'll start off with some of my favourites from inter-railing:
Shane - "What flavour are these, _Arse?"
Donncha - "It's one of Germany's biggest attractions" *pause* Rob - "But we're not in Germany, we're in Bavaria"
Shane - "Dónal, for God's sake, that's not a toilet!"
Parker - "Invaluable? So not valuable?"
Me - "Well if you curse in your sleep, you probably shouldn't sleep with children..."
PS - Curse filter could be an issue here Rob, get on it...

To that end:

I am fairly well known around my circle of friends for being exceedingly metrosexual. I obsess over my appearance and occasionally have spa weekends and get manicures. It has led to speculation (and even accusations) about my sexuality. I once saw fit to defend these allegations with a clear and pronounced
"I'm not gay! I'm just fabulous."
This was at least six months ago. I am still tortured over it to this day.

I have the best one from my mother. I was late for my maths mocks because of this bus drivers' protest thing so I called my mother, but nothing could be done. She texted me this:
Foot worry love its not yous fault and it is only the mocks not the seal thing x x

So, here we go. The quotes from my Facebook page. I'll probably add more as I go along.
Probably my favourite quotes ever and the collective mantra I live by:
"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today." --James Dean
"A man is only truly free in his dreams. It has always been thus, and thus it will always be." -- Richard Keating in 'Dead Poets Society'
A nice one from everyone's favourite time-traveller and alien fearer:
"The first man to raise a fist is the first man to run out of ideas." -- H.G. Wells
How I feel about religion:
"Basically ... out of all the ridiculous religion stories which are greatly, wonderfully ridiculous—the silliest one I've ever heard is, 'Yeah ... there's this big giant universe and it's expanding, it's all gonna collapse on itself and we're all just here just 'cause ... just 'cause'. That, to me, is the most ridiculous explanation ever." - Trey Parker
Motivation from Superman:
"At first, so many of our dreams seem impossible, then improbable and then when we summon the will...they become inevitable." -- Christopher Reeve
A nice little quote from Lois & Clark (of which there are many):
<H.G. Wells: What's the matter, my dear?
Lois: Oh, you've been to the future, Mr. Wells. Is it true what Tempus said about me?
H.G. Wells: Oh, yes. You're as highly-revered as any woman in history.
Lois: Oh, no, I meant about being galactically stupid.
H.G. Wells: No, no, no, Miss Lane, not stupid. Blind. It is one of the many things that makes your story so timeless. Why children never tire of hearing it at bedtime. Why parents never outgrow it. Generation after generation, we are all blinded by love, Miss Lane. Especially that one great love that changes us forever.>
And finally, a short and sweet collection of words that have helped me get past one of the toughest things I've had to deal with in a long time:
"There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go." --Author Unknown

Also, I should mention that Common People is in itself, one of the greatest quotes, ever.
I am gay for that song.

And by that logic: -2^2 = 2^2 = 4 therefore -2 = 2 OHMYGODAGGGHHH!!!! (As in, the prerequisite for that being true is that a and b are the same, in which case... oh never mind, I'll go away now...).

I know it doesn't make sense, but I like the idea of some internet n00b proving all maths to be completely redundant, making us seriously rethink everything we previously held to be true.
