Seriously, do you know anyone who doesn't? Here are some of my favorite quotes ever, along with their sources:
"And what do you do, out of love?"
"I ache... for who we were." (Paris, Je T'aime)
"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." (Stephen Henry Roberts)
"Kiss me on impulse! Surprise me!" (Paris, Je T'aime)
"And perhaps beyond those shrouded swells another man did walk with another child on the dead gray sands. Slept but a sea apart on another beach among the bitter ashes of the world or stood in their rags lost to the same indifferent sun." (The Road, by Cormac McCarthy)
"Don't feel inferior... we lie a lot." (me)
"The time has come, the walrus said, to speak of many things, of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings, of why the sea is boiling hot and whether pigs have wings." (The Walrus and the Carpenter, a poem in the book Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll)
"It's not failure, it's redefined objectives." (Harry Potter fanfiction.. and some TV show)
"He walked out into the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world." (The Road, by Cormac McCarthy)
"Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it." (The Road, by Cormac McCarthy)
"...And the people who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music." (Friedrich Nietzsche)
"Well, I don't know how to break this to you, but I think they might have noticed we broke into Gringotts." (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, by J.K. Rowling)

"It's like those guys who raise bears and then they get eaten by one and it's like "oh yes, of course"" (NCIS, "Ignition")
By the way, for those of you who haven't seen it, Paris, Je T'aime is an amazing movie. It's actually comprised of 18 different short films, each one based on a different arrondissement in Paris (they had to leave two out for editing reasons), that follow the different love stories of the citizens in Paris. Definitely a movie worth watching.
The Road by Cormac McCarthy is also really great, for those of you who love reading like me (: It's set in post-apocilypse America and follows a father and son as they wander around a barren earth, trying to survive starvation, hopelessness, and cannibalism. Rated one of the best apocilyspe books ever, as well as one of the most disturbing. While it may leave you feeling slightly depressed and hopeless, it's well worth it.

I enjoyed reading your quotes :)
