    All right, this is the plan. We get in there and get wrecked, then we'll eat a pork pie, then we'll drop a couple of Surmontil-50's each. That means we'll miss out Monday but come up smiling Tuesday morning.

    Anything by Dorothy Parker :D

    “In youth, it was a way I had,
    To do my best to please.
    And change, with every passing lad
    To suit his theories.
    But now I know the things I know
    And do the things I do,
    And if you do not like me so,
    To hell, my love, with you.”

    ''This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly-it should be thrown with great force.''

    ''Tell him I've been too f***ing busy- or vice-versa.''

    ''Serves me right for putting all my eggs in one b*stard'' (said when leaving hospital after an abortion.)

    ''If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to.''

    ''If all the girls who attended the Yale prom were laid end to end...I wouldn't be a bit surprised!''

    ''You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think'' (after being asked to use the word 'horticulture' in a sentence) :D

    I love this quote said by Spike in Buffy to Rupert Giles,

    'Awww, poor Watcher. Did your life flash before your eyes? Cup of tea, cup of tea, almost-got-shagged, cup of tea?'

    Classic :D

    My favourite quote, also from Buffy, is: "The hardest thing in this world is to live in it."

    My other favourite quote (not from Buffy) is: "Dogs come when you call. Cats take a message and get back to you."

    "It is not the law that precautions must be taken against every peril that can be foreseen by the timorous."
    Lord Norman - Bolton v Stone [1951] 1 All ER 1078

    It's my favourite quote of all time. I can't stand hyper-litigious cry-babies.

    “Blood is just red sweat.” - Enson Inoue, Japanese American martial arts fighter

    "I can resist everything except temptation." - Oscar Wilde

    "I haven't committed a crime. What I did was fail to comply with the law." - David Dinkins, New York City Mayor

    "Regardless the desperation of a situation, a good leader is the one who can calm the panic, ease the anger, steady the fear, inspire the despair, find the lost and lead them the way home." - I don't know who said it. My granddad quoted this motivational line almost all the time.

    “In a mad world, only the mad are sane.” - Akira Kurosawa, Japanese film director

    My all-time favourite:

    "Day, n. A period of twenty-four hours, mostly misspent." - Ambrose Bierce
