'Lots of people wear party hats.'

Well, they do!

ETS: because commas and apostrophes are not interchangeable.

'And they did it because they didn't know it couldn't be done.'

I read this in class recently, and thought it was wonderful. Some professor gave students an impossible problem to tackle that all the professors and grad students couldn't do...And they completed it in one semester, because they thought it was expected of them, and didn't know enough to know it wasn't possible.

Of all the words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these.... it might have been

I always thought I'd look back on the tears with laughter, but I never thought I'd look back at the laughter with tears.... I will always remember you with a smile on my face and a tear in my eye.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

Re: Favorite quotes!

It's a little more than a quote.... its part of a song by Bright Eyes

'Some plans were made and rice was thrown
A house was built, a baby born
How time can move both fast and slow
Amazes me
And so I raise my glass to symmetry
To the second hand and its accuracy
To the actual size of everything
The desert is the sand
You can't hold it in your hand
It won't bow to your demands
There's no difference you can make
There's no difference you can make
And if it seems like an accident
A collage of senselessness
You aren't looking hard enough
I wasn't looking hard enough at it'

We are the musicmakers and we are the dreamers of the dreams - Willy Wonka

Love in the open hand, no thing but that,
Ungemmed, unhidden, wishing not to hurt,
As one should bring you cowslips in a hat
Swung from the hand, or apples in her skirt,
I bring to you, calling out as children do:
'Look what I have! — And these are all for you.' - Edna St Vincent Millay

And everytime she sneezes I believe it's love and Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing - Counting Crows
