hm… looking through my list of random quotes (yes I have a list!), it seems I have a bunch that aren’t from anime… here we go!

[quote]“Fate is merely the war cry of those too scared to think for themselves” - Clarence, Penumbra (good game)

“There is no such thing as a fair fight. It’s you, or me, and it’s not going to be me.” - Boba Fett

“Soul of the mind, key to life’s ether. Soul of the lost withdrawn from its vessel. Let strength be granted so the world might be mended.” - Maiden in black, Demon’s Souls (good game… and that quote reminds me of Hell Girl for some reason.)

More later on… I’ll actually wait a little while on the next few… they’re from a game that came out recently… I don’t want to spoil anything… not that they are really spoilers though.

122

Nothing is real, everything is permitted. - Assassin’s Creed

123

Okay, these next quotes are going to be from Portal 2… Since the game is relatively new, I’m going to put the quotes in a spoiler… also they’re kind of long so… that too.

Though these quotes aren’t technically spoiling any part of the story, it’s more fun to find them in the game on your own than it is to read them here…

[spoiler]“If you cut yourself in the course of these tests, you might have noticed that your blood is pure gasoline. That’s normal. We’ve been shooting you with an invisible laster that’s supposed to turn your blood into gasoline. So all that means is it’s working.” - Cave Johnson, Portal 2

“If you need to use the bathroom after this next series of tests, please let a test associate know. Because in all likelihood whatever comes out of you is gonna be coal. Only temporary so do not worry. If it persists for a week though, start worrying, and come see us, because that’s not supposed to happen”. - Cave Johnson, Portal 2

“Just a heads up, we’re gonna have a superconductor turned up full blast and pointed at you for the duration of this next test. I’ll be honest; we’re throwing science at the wall here to see what sticks. No idea what it’ll do… probably nothing. Best case scenario, you might get some superpowers. Worst case, some tumors which we’ll cut out.” - Cave Johnson, Portal 2

“If you’re allergic to peanuts, you might want to tell somebody now, because this next test MAY turn your blood into peanut water for a few minutes. On the bright side, if we can make this happen, they’re gonna have to make up a new type of Nobel Prize to give us. So… hang in there.” - Cave Johnson, Portal 2

“The average human male is about 60 percent water. Far as we’re concerned that’s a little extravagant. So if you feel a bit dehydrated in this next test, that’s normal. We’re gonna hit you with some jet engines and see if we can’t get you down to 20 or 30 percent.” - Cave Johnson, Portal 2

“Alright, we’re working on a little teleportation experiment, now this doesn’t work with all skin types, so try to remember which skin is yours, and if it doesn’t teleport along with you, we’ll do what we can to sew you right back into it.” - Cave Johnson, Portal 2[/spoiler]

124

You hear that? That’s market bacon hitting the pan. Today a child is born unto us, and his name will be bacon. - Wallace Scott Pilgrim vol.3

125

“We can tell other people about - having faith. What we had faith in. What we found important enough to fight for. It’s not whether you were right or wrong, but how much faith you were willing to have, that decides the future.” - Solid Snake

126

"I bake pies and wake the dead. I live a very sheltered life."
Ned (The Pie Maker) - Pushing Daisies

137

CNN Anchor Wolf Blitzer: “Does that mean you want to come up with a new Sarah Palin initiative that you want to release right now?”

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin: “Gah! Nothing specific right now. Sitting here in these chairs that I’m going to be proposing but in working with these governors who again on the front lines are forced to and it’s our privileged obligation to find solutions to the challenges facing our own states every day being held accountable, not being just one of many just casting votes or voting ‘present’ every once in a while, we don’t get awway with that.”

138

Estonian Proverb: Who does not thank for little, will not thank for much.

Erma Bombeck: No One Diets on Thanksgiving. What we’re really talking about is a wonderful day set aside on the fourth Thursday of November when no one diets. I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving?

George Carlin: We’re having something a little different this year for Thanksgiving. Instead of a turkey, we’re having a swan. You get more stuffing.

Johnny Carson: Thanksgiving is an emotional holiday. People travel thousands of miles to be with people they only see once a year. And then discover once a year is way too often.

Rita Rudner: My mother is such a lousy cook that Thanksgiving at her house is a time of sorrow.

Charles Lamb: Gluttony and surfeiting are no proper occasions for thanksgiving.

Reba McEntire: To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funny bone.

David Letterman: When I was a kid in Indiana, we thought it would be fun to get a turkey a year ahead of time and feed it and so on for the following Thanksgiving. But by the time Thanksgiving came around, we sort of thought of the turkey as a pet, so we ate the dog. Only kidding. It was the cat!
