"Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

I have been living by this quote for some time now. Some people say it is cliche. I say "Go hang a salami! I'm a lasagna hog!."

Considering that when i grow up, i want to be in the British Army, it is probably an extremely famous quote dedicated to WW2. "Keep calm and carry on." This quote has been 'edited' to also become a more modern and stylish way "Don't be jel be reem." I think that the creativity is outstanding considering where the saying originated from and how sensible the subject of war can be; especially talking about the many who died during these times and still are today, for our country.

-Dedicated to the army from me

"Life's what happens, when you try to make plans..."

I heard this from a man who had recently lost his brother suddenly... and allthough that's not a nice background, he himself was strong and made this his credo! =D
