Sometimes you can find some pretty cool quotes just by looking at sigs on DeviantART.

I really liked this one:

"Life is like gambling; you play and sometimes you lose. But if you never play, you will never win."

And this one... it has two possible meanings, and personally I can't figure out which one it is... Here it is:

"They say that Kanda has the body of a twelve-year old boy, but no one knows where he's keeping it..."

Allen: (to unconcious lenalee) I'm sorry, i made you cry...I'm sorry i couldn't save him...
(lenalee wakes up)
Allen: Lenalee!
Lenalee: Allen-kun...
allen: yeah...I'm sorry, Lnalee, so sorry...
Lenalee: why apologize? If it's because of suman, you already saved him. (sits up and stroked Allen's cheek) He was not mudured savagely, his heart was saved by you....Welcome back, Allen-kun!
Allen: (starts crying) I'm back...( places hand on Lenalees hand) I'm back,Lenalee!
(they slowly lean towards eachother)
Bookman: oh, so youre awake?
(Camera zooms out to see everyone sitting around them, Allen and Lenalee are surprised)

Allen: (blushing) i-i-
Lenalee: well, lavi cried when he heard about you, Allen.
Allen: oh he did, did he? Must have been bawling!
Lavi: (angrily, blushing) i did no such thing!
Allen: aw, come on lavi, you know you love me.
Lavi: i do not!
(everyone laughs as they argue)

@Sen...

You are more than welcome, my dear... Always happy to meet Ghibli fans. There are a few here in the area where I live as I have had them react to the tattoos on my arms. One of Totoro and the other a 'kodama'. Only prob is that they are all MUCH younger than I, lol

tykki: one more round!
allen: very well, but first please wash your underwear.

@ harms - LOLs, Allen's scary when he plays cards. Course, Tyki was in disguise at the time. If he wasn't, the two of them would have been trying to blow each other to bits.

There's something so wrong about the fact that Allen always cheats at cards.

I would post some quotes from Gagrin Way, a play I did in English. But I think I would get banned for it.

So I'll settle with:
"The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one."

Mitch Hedberg:

When you get lost in the woods... build a house. "Well I was lost, but now I live here."

or

I hate arrows, they always look like they are pointing in some direction. If I was killed by an arrow I dont think they would ever solve the crime. "Hm. I wonder how this guy was killed. Hey! Let's go that way."

Hehe, I think my best Schwarzenegger one-liner is from 'Commando', when he says "Let off some steam Bennent" after he throws a peice of pipe through his adversarys torso and impalls him to a ruptured heating out vent. Classic!
