RE: Great sayings and quotes
Ah this thread is finally my chance to shine. Whenever i come across a good line i save them as bookmarks:

"Every man thinks meanly of himself for not having been a soldier"

"A man cannot live by two names"

Archer, on worrying:

ARCHER: Why would you worry about that before you need to? CYRIL: What? ARCHER: Why clog your brain with a bunch of hypothetical maybe-what-if bullshit?

"I'd rather be timeless than popular"- MikeCF

On Han solo (and being a man in general):

"We love him because he's not one of the good guys. He's just good enough."

"Elmer's Law: when women enter a male space, the focus shifts from getting shit done(even if that means just conveying information) to the comfort and security of said women." -Mangosteen

"Our language has wisely sensed these two sides of man’s being alone. It has created the word 'loneliness' to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word 'solitude' to express the glory of being alone." -- Paul Tillich

"Broad shoulders on a man are like big boobs on a woman - people won't notice a lot of other physical flaws if you have them."- MikeCF again :-)

"Luxury is feeling unrushed. It is designing a life that allows you to do what you want with high leverage, with many options, all while feeling unrushed."

I've got more, but these are enough

RE: Great sayings and quotes
“Ideally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or her school life is something like this: ‘You are in the process of being indoctrinated. We have not yet evolved a system of education that is not a system of indoctrination. We are sorry, but it is the best we can do. What you are being taught here is an amalgam of current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being taught by people who have been able to accommodate themselves to a regime of thought laid down by their predecessors. It is a self-perpetuating system. Those of you who are more robust and individual than others will be encouraged to leave and find ways of educating yourself — educating your own judgements. Those that stay must remember, always, and all the time, that they are being moulded and patterned to fit into the narrow and particular needs of this particular society.” -- Doris Lessing

“I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be famous. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in someone else’s mind. They don’t teach you what to say to someone who’s dying. They don’t teach you anything worth knowing.” -- Neil Gaiman

“You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book… or you take a trip… and you discover that you are not living, that you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom (when hibernating becomes dangerous and might degenerate into death): absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony, boredom, death. Millions live like this (or die like this) without knowing it. They work in offices. They drive a car. They picnic with their families. They raise children. And then some shock treatment takes place, a person, a book, a song, and it awakens them and saves them from death. Some never awaken.” -- Anaïs Nin

“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality.” - Lao Tsu

“We have to create culture, don’t watch TV, don’t read magazines, don’t even listen to NPR. Create your own roadshow. The nexus of space and time where you are now is the most immediate sector of your universe, and if you’re worrying about Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody else, then you are disempowered, you’re giving it all away to icons, icons which are maintained by an electronic media so that you want to dress like X or have lips like Y. This is shit-brained, this kind of thinking. That is all cultural diversion, and what is real is you and your friends and your associations, your highs, your orgasms, your hopes, your plans, your fears. And we are told ‘no’, we’re unimportant, we’re peripheral. ‘Get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a that.’ And then you’re a player, you don’t want to even play in that game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.” -- Terence McKenna

RE: Great sayings and quotes
G.K. Chesterton has an overwhelming number of great quotes. They span nearly every subject and are succinct in a way only a few can write. These are some of my favorites..


“Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously.”

“The traveler sees what he sees. The tourist sees what he has come to see.”

“The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.”

“An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered”

“Fallacies do not cease to be fallacies because they become fashions.”

“If there were no God, there would be no atheists.”

“I believe in getting into hot water; it keeps you clean.”

“How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win.”

“A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.”

“Humility is the mother of giants. One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak.”

“Impartiality is a pompous name for indifference, which is an elegant name for ignorance.”

“There are two ways of getting home; and one of them is to stay there”

“Do not free a camel of the burden of his hump; you may be freeing him from being a camel.”

“Humor can get in under the door while seriousness is still fumbling at the handle.”

RE: Great sayings and quotes
"If you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop your story."

"There are three intolerable things in life - cold coffee, lukewarm champagne, and overexcited women"

"We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone"

"Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn"

all from - Orson Welles

I'm not sure if he made this up by himself but my friend who's a serial approacher who does well in this city that is slandered by many on Roosh forum (Toronto) and anywhere else he seems to travel on opening random women:

"Approaching women is like a game of basketball......it's better to shoot 2 of 20 from the field than to go 0 for 0......you gotta shoot to score"

Nobody cares. Work harder!

Cameron Hanes sells a t shirt with this saying. It's so simple but says so much. I'm not even really a fan of the guy (not my favorite Rogan guest), but the guy is a beast and works his ass off.

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”

George Best is a poet:

"If you'd given me the choice of going out and beating four men and smashing a goal in from thirty yards against Liverpool or going to bed with Miss World, it would have been a difficult choice. Luckily, I had both."

"I used to go missing a lot... Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World."
