Lady Nancy Astor: 'Winston, if you were my husband, I'd poison your tea.'
Churchill: 'Nancy, if I were your husband, I'd drink it.'

And for a useful life quote from Dr Seuss:

'Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.'

Hey everyone, can you please share your favorite quotes with me? The quotes that have stood out the most to you or helped you when researching during a mental slump. I need to get my collection up. No anti-s stuff. I have quite a few saved to my phone so I'll start.

"Tonight the thoughts were about how to end things, with a heavy emphasis on the how. The process of suicide isn't exactly easy. It takes preparation, scheduling, and a certain level-headedness to kill yourself. A person has to be ready for it. He has to make the necessary plans, take the necessary steps. And, most importantly, he has to not only feel like dying, but also like killing. And the two feelings couldn't be more different."

Oof. This one is chilling. And accurate

"Cynicism is the polite way to express despair."

From a game I've been playing recently, it resonated with me.

"My story is one of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon."
Ezio Auditore from Assassins Creed.

And so I leave this world, where the heart must either break or turn to lead

 

[Tiberius85]

"Human lives are brief and trivial. Yesterday a blob of semen; tomorrow embalming fluid, ash. To pass through this brief life as nature demands. To give it up without complaint." - Marcus Aurelius.

What was that one someone posted in another similar thread about strong people not putting people down, they lift them up? I like that one.

What was that one someone posted in another similar thread about strong people not putting people down, they lift them up? I like that one.

Yes, I like that one too. "Strong people don't put others down, they lift them up." I've read another one on those lines a while back similar in nature that said, "the only time a strong person looks down at someone is to lift them up." Good stuff

 

[Fktw0rld]

Came across another one, I'm sure many can relate to.

"I never want to wake up. I have a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. I'm living a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I wake up into a nightmare."

"Life's a bitch and then you keep living"

"It gets easier, but you gotta do it everyday, that's the hard part"
"Life's a bitch and then you keep living"

Reminds me of the Bojack horseman quote for some reason. "Everything time I think I hit rock bottom, I find out there's rockier bottom underneath."

Don't remember when or where I came across it, years ago, I may have written it myself, but it comes to mind all the time:

"A bird that beautiful has no business being caged."

Or:

"All tears are the same." (Irish proverb?)

And I'll finally end this with one from George Carlin:
"I'm an outsider by choice, but not truly. It's the unpleasantness of the system that keeps me out. I'd rather be in, in a good system. That's where my discontent comes from: being forced to choose to stay outside."

"Life is like animal porn....it's not for everybody"
Doug Stanhope

"There are three sides to every story: yours, mine, and the cold, hard truth."

I first read it by Roger Waters, but it's apparently been attributed elsewhere with some variations.

Not exactly relevant to CTB discussion, but it has served me well when examining people's recollection and analysis of events.

I find this extraordinarily relevant to my ctb story. In fact, in my personal experience, if people could even acknowledge that the truth existed, perhaps I wouldn't spend every waking moment feeling like I'm responsible for hiding all these fucking elephants.

 

[Fktw0rld]

Hits the nail on the head with this one!

"Cowardice has nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage and is anything but selfish. Japanese have the right idea. What's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching."

Just one of very many I could write.

Birth was the death of him.

"You live and you learn, either you freeze or you burn."
- Jadakiss, 2011, "It's Good".

 

[Scythe]

translated from chinese : "Humans always liked to use art and entrertainment to try and mend their wounds hidden deep in their hearts and mind ━━ People who are stuck in prefect romance stories, fear they cannot obtain true love; House wives who love comedies fear the cruelty of money and reality; The kids who lost their loved one will forever believe in the existence of ghosts, for that means their lvoed ones have obtained new life in another world; The timid and fragile teens, will love stories of heros that defends justice, for these are the dreams they cannot achieve no matter what in their lives"-from a book called 龙与猫之国
Another quote from the series: "I am always question myself, when do humans actually die? When they stop dreaming, when they stop suffering, when they stop despairing for living yet another day, when they are stuck in their pride, self-pity, self-hate, and empty promises 一一No matter if their heart is still beating, their eyes, have gone blind; Their soul, will have died; Their teeth although still able to chew food, are no different from the muscle spasms of a zombie."

 

[The Tablet]

❝life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. it is a tale told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing.❞
