sanctuary Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Ok, I'll start off with one... 'Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.’ — Helen Keller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placebo69a Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 " 'Good morning' said Bilbo, and he meant it. The sun was shining, and the grass was very green. But Gandalf looked at him from under long bushy eyebrows that stuck out further than the brim of his shady hat. 'What do you mean?' he said. 'Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?' 'All of them at once,' said Bilbo." -The Hobbit, by J.R.R Tolkien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
