    I'm reading through an edition of Uncut Legends magazine, edition three, devoted entirely to U2. And I came across a passage from Oasis member Noel Gallagher regarding U2, which made me chuckle:

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"U2, man. Totally. Right from the early days, for the four of them to stay together that long is fucking staggering. America didn't break them, they broke America, and they smashed it all the way around the word ... They're that fucking good they make me sick. I get physically sick watching them 'cos they're just so good. And no one ever will be as big as them. I mean, to me U2 are what The Beatles were."</div>

    Anyway, I just found that particular passage both inspiring and humorous at the same time. So post any quotes, one liners or passages that catch your eye, no matter how obscure, whacky or common.

    I found two quotes I really liked today Watching the Passion of the Christ:

    "He was wounded by our transgressions, crushed by our inequities; by His wounds, we are healed."
    Isaiah 53

    "If the world hates you, remember that it has hated me first."-Jesus Christ

    "The only sport that interested me was the basketball, and man that broke my heart. The Dream Team was more of a nightmare. I mean, we're losing to countries like ... like Puerto Rico. I'm like, man, don't we own that place?" - Dave Chappelle on the Olympics.

    "You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when add up all those inches, that's gonna make the fucking difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!" - Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday

    Verna: What're you chewin' over?
    Tom Reagan: Dream I had once. I was walkin' in the woods, I don't know why. Wind came up and blew me hat off.
    Verna: And you chased it, right? You ran and ran, finally caught up to it and you picked it up. But it wasn't a hat anymore and it changed into something else, something wonderful.
    Tom Reagan: Nah, it stayed a hat and no, I didn't chase it. Nothing more foolish than a man chasin' his hat.
