This is on my signature aswell:

They say we have our memories, they do not understand
How can you kiss a memory or hold it in your hand.

It explains itself really. And I know this is out of Tomb Raider but it's a great saying.

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
To hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour

I also like this one even though it's a rhyme from 10 Things I hate About You...

I hate the way you talk to me and the way you cut your hair
I hate the way you drive my car
I hate it when you stare
I hate your big dumb combat foods and the way you read my mind
I hate you so much it makes me sick
It even makes me rhyme
I hate it when your always right
I hate it when you lie
I hate it when you make me laugh,
Even worse when you make me cry
I hate it when your not around and the fact that you didn't call
Mostly I hate the way I don't hate you
Not even close, not even a little bit
Not even at all.

I love little sayings/rhyme's like this. Has anyone got any more?
 
I LOVED that film - (10 things i hate about you) I've watched it that many times I've lost count!

OK, here's mine. It's not very good, but i got it from the buffy book called "The Evil That Men Do," I'm not sure if it's what your looking for but its a spell that willow performs and it also rhymes.

By the light and the heart of the earth,
I forbid all evil spirits my bedstead and couch;
I forbid you my house and my home;
I forbid you my flesh and blood and body and soul.
I irrevocably forbid you entrance to my mind and my thoughts;
My fears and my strengths;
Until you have travelled over every single hill and vale;
Forged every stream and river;
Counted all the grains of sands on all the shores;
And every star in the sky.
I forbid you.

"With great power comes great responsibility" - Uncle Ben from Spiderman (by Stan Lee)

and even better

"We are who we choose to be!" - the Green Goblin from Spiderman (by Stan Lee)

I don't know where this one came from, but I think it's very true, goes very well with the previous quote!

"It doesn't matter where you are (in life), it only matters how you got there!" - ...
 
Don't try to understand it. Its far beyond your limited capacity to comprehend.

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong, is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.


There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.


In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
 
Yup, I mean everyone talks about it all the time. The universe I mean. And some people get really angry about it. I don't get that. Its here, why worry about it?
 
Angel'sLuv>> do I detect a hint of Terry Pratchett in that motto of yours?

it's not exactly positive but I really like my sig.
 
"Inside the vastness of the Universe, you and I effectively don't exist. But that doesn't matter; we still have to pay the rent on the first of the month. "
 
Mine are just quotes i like! I have too many to name but heres a few 🙂

If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it.
