This is a simple thread.

Just write a quote that you've heard today, yesterday, this week, this month ect, that you just loved!

It could be from any TV show, radio, friend, family member or something you've said - anything from anywhere.


My first was a humourous comment I heard last night on, I think, 'Live at the Apollo' on BBC 1 by Andy Hamilton.

'This years Apprentice is probably going to be the most important one yet - its the only job being created in 2009!'

Pure hilarity!

Was watching Red Dwarf as usual, and just had to post this exchange between Cat and Kryten.

Cat: "OK. I say get into the jet-powered rocket pants and junior-birdman the hell out of here."

Kryten: "An excellent and inventive suggestion, sir, with just two tiny drawbacks: A) We don't have any jet-powered rocket pants; and B) There's no such thing as jet-powered rocket pants outside the fictional serial Robbie Rocket Pants."

Cat: "Well that's put a crimp on an otherwise damn fine plan."

I wanted to put this as my Sig, but alas it had too many letters 🙁 It is from Yes, Prime Minister.

Prime Minister, I have had another word with her. To put it simply, Prime Minister, certain informal discussions took place involving a full and frank exchange of views, after which there arose a series of proposals which on examination proved to indicate certain promising lines of enquiry, which when pursuit led to the realization that the alternative courses of action might in fact, in certain circumstances, be susceptible of discreet modification, leading to a reappraisal of the original areas of difference and pointing a way to encouraging possibilities of compromise and cooperation which if bilaterally implemented with appropriate give and take on both sides might, if the climate were right, have a reasonable possibility at the end of the day of leading rightly or wrongly to a mutually satisfactory resolution.

please please please dont take this personally...but that is one of THE most boring quotes I have ever read.
My facebook has been collecting quotes for a while so I figured I would add them. These are not only ones I find humerous or interesting, but ones that I think define me (something I think quotes we use should be) which is why I use them for my facebook profile.. Every single one I could write an essay on and I agree with 100% so I welcome comments. I hope you enjoy them 🙂

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though they were a very large mammal their throat was very small.
The little girl stated Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
The teacher reiterated a whale could not
swallow a human; it was impossible.
The little girl said, "Fine, when I get to heaven I will ask Jonah."
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."
