You're not a real man unless you change at least six variables at once.

But you see in dealing with me, the relatives didn't know that they were dealing with a staunch character and I tell you if there's anything worse than dealing with a staunch woman... S-T-A-U-N-C-H. There's nothing worse, I'm telling you. They don't weaken, no matter what.

"Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone." - Noah.

"I am no one special. Just a common man with common thoughts. I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but in one respect I've succeeded as gloriously as anyone who ever lived. I've loved another with all my heart and soul and for me that has always been enough." - Duke (Noah.)

Was watching "The Tudors," and remembered a quote I'd heard... somewhere.

Here's one I like:

I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.

Hah! I like that one. One of the things that pisses me off in online roleplay games, particularly the medieval fantasy type ones, is that everybody always wants to be some kickass powerful wizard. Whole uberguilds of kickass powerful wizards and warlocks. Where's the mystery and power if everyone's doing it?

I played almost a year in UO just being the one that sits on the curb clapping. It's an interesting perspective from down there.
