    Could be from anywhere, anyone.

    "Everything negative - pressure, challenges - is all an oppurtunity for me to rise."- Kobe Bryant

    "They've got money for wars, but can't feed the poor"- Tupac Shakur (keep Ya Head Up)

    Those 2 are the only ones I can think of at the moment. A bunch of Thomas Edison, FDR and more random people's ones stick out as well but I'll remember those later on.

    I love that one as well but I'm pretty sure it was from "Changes".

    "Life's a bitch, and then you die."- Mac Dre/Nas (though I'm sure alot of others have said it)

    "You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude. But they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on you."- Silent Bob in Clerks

    That's all I can think of right now but I'm sure I'll have more later.

    What I always say my favorite quote is:

    ``Why would I want to help them win a title? They're not doing anything for me. I'm at risk. I have a lot of risk here. I got my family to feed. Anything could happen.''

    -Latrell Sprewell after rejecting the T-Wolves 3 year/$27-30 million contract offer.

    What it actually is:

    "No army can stop an idea whose time has come."

    -Victor Hugo

    Bonus Quote:

    "Sprewell...man, what a jackass."

    </div>

    lol I read that on a site a couple of years ago, don't remember the validity of the site but I can almost imagine him saying that anyway [​IMG]

    For some humour with Bush quotes:

    "I couldn't imagine somebody like Osama bin Laden understanding the joy of Hanukkah." ?George W. Bush, at a White House Menorah lighting ceremony, Washington, D.C., Dec. 10, 2001

    "Border relations between Canada and Mexico have never been better." ?George W. Bush, in a press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien. Sept. 24, 2001

    ^^ LMAOOOOOO

    I think he just means to say one thing but blurts out something else.

    And the funniest one has to be:

    "There's an old saying in Tennessee ? I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee ? that says, fool me once, shame on ? shame on you. Fool me ? you can't get fooled again." ?George W. Bush, Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 17, 2002

    Everytime I see the video of him saying that, it cracks me up. If you guys havent seen the video for him saying that, you should definetly watch it for a good laugh.

    "The problem with the French is that they don't have a word for entrepreneur." ?George W. Bush, discussing the decline of the French economy with British Prime Minister Tony Blair

    "My trip to Asia begins here in Japan for an important reason. It begins here because for a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times. From that alliance has come an era of peace in the Pacific." ?George W. Bush, who apparently forgot about a little something called World War II, Tokyo, Feb. 18, 2002

    "I'm so pleased to be able to say hello to Bill Scranton. He's one of the great Pennsylvania political families." ?George W. Bush, Drexel Hill, Penn., Sept. 15, 2003

    "We had a chance to visit with Teresa Nelson who's a parent, and a mom or a dad." ?George W. Bush, Jacksonville, Florida, Sept. 9, 2003

    "I think war is a dangerous place." ?George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., May 7, 2003

    "The war on terror involves Saddam Hussein because of the nature of Saddam Hussein, the history of Saddam Hussein, and his willingness to terrorize himself." ?George W. Bush, Grand Rapids, Mich., Jan. 29, 2003

    ^^ [​IMG]

    Ok that's enough...there's a bunch at http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/blbushisms2003.htm
    good for a laugh.

    This one is a personal favorite of mine and my senior quote -

    <font color=""DarkOrchid"">I see myself as a huge fiery comet, a shooting star. Everyone stops, points up and gasps "Oh look at that!" Then - whoosh, and I'm gone... and they'll never see anything like it ever again, and they won't be able to forget me - ever. </font> - Jim Morrison

    Another JM Quote -

    <font color=""darkorchid"">"We can only open the doors, we can't drag people through. I can't free them unless they want to be free. Maybe primitive people have less bullshit to let go of, to give up. A person has to be willing to give up everything — not just wealth. All the bullshit that he's been taught — all society's brainwashing. You have to let go of all that to get to the other side. Most people aren't willing to do that."</font>

    Probably my favorite funny one -

    "I like an escalator because an escalator can never break. It can only become stairs. You would never see an "Escalator temporarily out-of-order" sign. Just 'Escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.'" - Mitch Hedberg
