History is written by the victor, and those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it. These quotes still apply in today's world, and are good things to remember.
Georges Bataille
- Story of the Eye
To others, the universe seems decent because decent people have gelded eyes. That is why they fear lewdness. They are never frightened by the crowing of a rooster or when strolling under a starry heaven. In general, people savor the pleasures of the flesh only on condition that they be insipid. But as of then, no doubt existed for me: I did not care for what is known as pleasures of the flesh because they really are insipid; I cared only for what is classified as dirty.
Lou Reed
- Hearing The Ramones
They're crazy. That is without a doubt, the most fantastic thing you've ever played for me, bar none. It makes everybody else look so bullshit and wimpy - Patti Smith and me included, just wow. Everybody else looks like they're really old-fashioned. That's rock 'n' roll, they really hit where it hurts. They are everything everybody worried about; every parent would freeze in their tracks if they heard this stuff. They got them an amp, they got them a guitar. Now look!

We aren't promised tomorrow, our past is in the past, all we have is right now, we have no time for regrets so don't dwell in the past, don't get lost in the worries of tomorrow for it is not guaranteed. Live for the moment, dance like no one is watching you, sing as if you're alone, love with all your heart, and never ever let anyone or anything dull your sparkle!

All my dreams came true the day you were born. When I held you for the first time, instantly I knew I was holding my whole world. The love I have for you is everlasting. No matter how much you grow, you will always be my baby. You are my everything my sweet little Angel. Angelina, I Love you always and forever to the moon and back!

- The Ancestor on the Prophet Part 3
Finally, resigned to his uncommon corporeal resilience, I lured him to the dig. There, I showed him the Thing, and detailed the full extent of my plans. Triumphantly, I watched as he tore his eyes from their sockets, and ran shrieking into the shadows - wailing maniacally that the end was upon us all.
Darkest Dungeon
- The Ancestor on the Prophet Part 2
This raving creature had to be silenced, but doing so proved maddeningly impossible. How had he survived the stockades, the icy waters, and the knives I delivered so enthusiastically into his back? How had he returned time and time again to rouse the townsfolk with his wild speculations and prophecies?
Darkest Dungeon
- The Ancestor on the Prophet
Excavations beneath the manor were well underway, when a particular ragged indigent arrived in the hamlet. This filthy, toothless miscreant boasted an uncanny knowledge of my ambitions and prognosticated publicly that left unchecked, I would soon unleash doom upon the world.
Supergirl (Melissa Benoist)
- Supergirl hope speech
Now, in each and every one of you, there is a light, a spirit that cannot be snuffed out. That won't give up. I need your help again. I need you to hope. Hope that you will remember that you can all be heroes. Hope that when faced with an enemy determined to destroy your spirit, you will fight back and thrive. Hope that those who once may have shunned you will, in a moment of crisis, come to your aid. Hope that you will see again the faces of those you love. And perhaps even those you've lost.
Jordan Peterson
There are two major reasons for resentment: being taken advantage of (or allowing yourself to be taken advantage of). Or whiny refusal to adopt responsibility and grow up.
Jordan Peterson
Instead of protesting and trying to change the world, first win the war of evil within yourself. To make the world a better place, first do the things you have to do every day. And do them - actually do them every day.
Jordan Peterson
Blaming others for your problems is a complete waste of time. When you do that, you don't learn anything. You can't grow and you can't mature. Thus you can't make your life better.
Raymond Lafleur
- Right into the Post office
I got a muscle spasm in my back, you know, gears slipped. Air brakes were shot to hell. I mean, there's nothing I could do. Boom, right into the post office.
Emma Mueller
- Falling and Rising
I think I fell once. I can't remember it well, only that it hurt. I think I rose above once. I remember rising because I worked so hard for it all my life and when I rose above I forgot all about those times that I fell; the falling was nothing compared to the winning, to the rising up.
Batman ("Batman Begins")
- Incorruptible and Everlasting
People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy, and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man, I'm flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol... as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting.

We need to find the cure for aging. It has been said that humans live long enough and that there is no need to extend the human lifespan, and that may be true. But dogs live such short lives. Why do they have to go so soon?

I wrote my first quote a few days ago. I recently got my own quote while typing, and, without recognizing my own quote, cursed out the author for an unusual sentence structure.

- Dodged a Bullet
If you cannot be grateful about the things you have "received," be grateful about the horrible things you have "escaped." Sometimes, life hands you a gun to fight your enemies, sometimes, life shoots at you and you have to dodge the bullets. A quote by George Washington, probably.
Jeremiah S.
- Short Quote Quotes
I really dislike the disdain people have for short quotes, mainly because I go to this site to see how well I can type for decent amounts of time and genuinely want to speed up my typing by challenging myself while typing. I don't see a point for desiring short quotes unless you want to artificially inflate your WPM, or you want to trick yourself into thinking your WPM is faster than it is. Considering that, I vow for there to be no more short quotes.
Scandal
- Checkmate
I need to make some plans for my political future. And I do have a bright, bright political future. A sweet lawyer who gave up her career for her husband, suffered a miscarriage and then had a late in life baby while first lady. That's gold. That's a future president. That's a hell of a second act. America loves a second act. Get. Over. Her. You see her again and I'll blow you away. I'm an excellent shot remember.
