"I'm fine about it, as long as safety is put head and shoulders above any other concern, financial or whatever. If you keep safety as your number one priority at all stages of planning and running a plant, it should be OK."
--Alexander Yuvchenko on nuclear power.
Anyone who says that nuclear power is unsafe should listen to what this guy has to say about it.
Narrator: When people think you're dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just...
Marla Singer: - instead of just waiting for their turn to speak?
"I have some extremlely disstressing news, we're out of wine."
"I'm in a park and I'm practically dead, what good is the countryside?"
Both said by Withnail and from the film Withnail and I. I like the first quote because it reminds me of an old friend and the house parties we used to go to together. The second one because It made me laugh.
one of my favorite quotes is from donnie darko..
donnie:she said, she said that every living creature on this earth dies alone...
doctor therman:do you think you are alone?
donnie:I'd like to believe i'm not but i just don't have any proof so i don't debate it anymore...i could spend my whole life weighing the pros and cons but in the end i still wouldn't have any proof, so i just don't debate it anymore...it's obsurd...
doctor therman:the search for god is obsurd???
Donnie:it is if everyone dies alone...
something to think about...

If I ever opened a trampoline store, I don't think I'd call it
Trampo-Land, because you might think it was a store for tramps,
which is not the impression we are trying to convey with our store.
On the other hand, we would not prohibit tramps from browsing, or
testing the trampolines, unless a tramp's gyrations seemed to be
getting out of control. - Jack Handey:lol:

~ Shirley BasseyQuote:
Sometime when I feel afraid, I think of what a mess I've made Of my life, crying over my mistakes, forgetting all the breaks I've had In my life. I was put on earth to be, a part of this great world is me and my life. Guess I'll just add up the score, and count the things I'm grateful for in my life.

"Ich bin Geburtstag. What's that mean? I am birthday."
Just a random quote my friend says.

"Alcohol and night swimming.....its a winning combination!" - Lenny
Man's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Universe which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. God has not been proven not to exist, therefore he must exist. -Acadamecian Prokhor Zakharov
Alpha Centauri is great for quotes. :D
From EoFF, well, the one in my sig. If you can't see it because you have sigs turned off, too bad.
Others include;
"The average person thinks he isn’t."- Father Larry Lorenzoni;
"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian."- Dennis Wholey (1937-);
"If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?"- Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865);
"I don't mind coming to work -- I just don't want to stay when I get there." - I don't know who originally said it, but I say it a lot, so I credit me.
I like them because they all make sense and tend to be true.
Oh, also;
"If at first you don't succeed.... then bomb disposal probably isn't the job for you." - Unknown.
