What is your favorite quote?

[sbrylski]

Doesn't have to be baseball related - it can be a proverb, a funny quote, a dumb quote, or whatever...

 

There's so many great ones, but I've always loved Yogi Berra's, "Nobody goes there anymore, its too crowded." That's just such a perfect line.

[trwi7]

Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.

" THIS IS GARBAGE! AND THE EDITOR WHO CREATED THIS IS GARBAGE!... You want to come after somebody? COME AFTER ME! I'M A MAN! I'M 40! I AIN'T A KID!"

"How the hell can I make my teammates better by practicing?"

 

- A.I.

Not my favorite, but close to it and relating to a post above: It's better to be pissed off than pissed on.

"Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them." ~Maria (in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night)

 

One of my buddies favorite sayings, whenever a woman does something ridiculous and has perfect justification in her mind that makes no sense to anyone else: "[women] is crazy."

 

"Got a little distracted by someone doing the repeater."

"That'll happen."

"That will happen."

(Name that movie?)

 

And the obligatory Homer J Simpson quote: "I thought the cop was a prostitute."

 

[brewers4eric]

For those fans of Larry McMurtry's book 'Lonesome Dove', the quote: "uva uvam vivendo varia fit" is one of my favorites.

Part of why I regard this as one of my favorites is because it took me some effort to try and find a translation. There are many interpretations, but I finally settled upon "the versatile grape ripens in the presence of others". I think it applies to my enjoyment of this site, slopplily translated as "the versatile Brewer fan grows wiser by interacting with other Brewer fans", or "uva uvam vivendo brewvaria fit".

"Hating Brett Favre is like hating America. If you don't like Brett Favre, you don't like apple pie."

I always liked "Taking Shallowness to New Depths" -- I think it encourages people to not take what they say so seriously.

[Weirdos19]

Wow, where do I start?

 

My favorite is from Gladiator, "Unleash Hell."

 

Caddyshack quotes:

Mine lately are all Charles Bukowski...

 

"Humanity, you never had it to begin with."

 

"Love is a fog that burns with the first daylight of reality."

 

"Frankly, I was horrified by life, at what a man had to do simply in order to eat, sleep, and keep himself clothed. So I stayed in bed and drank. When you drank the world was still out there, but for the moment it didn't have you by the throat."

[And That]
