Teen Wolf
- Stiles on Phone with Scott
Scott? Pick up. Pick up now! Look, I got like 50 feet of ash left, and I'm out. OK? So you gotta get your wolf-ass down here and help me because I don't know what to do and I'm just standing out here... And I'm all alone and I'm hearing gunfire and werewolves. And I'm standing here like a friggin' idiot, all by myself with a handful of magic fairy dust!
Teen Wolf
- Stiles to Lydia
You see, death doesn't happen to you, Lydia. It happens to everyone around you, to all the people left standing at your funeral, trying to figure out how they're going to now live the rest of their lives without you in it.
Abby S.
In life, many things are uncertain. We don't know what will be tomorrow, and we barely know what is happening today. But there is one thing we do know. The moment Trader Joe's turns on us, we will begin referring to it as Traitor Joe's.
The Office TV Show
- Jim Impersonates Dwight
Question, what kind of bear is best? That's a ridiculous question. False. Black bear. Well, that's debatable. There are basically two schools of thought. Fact, bears eat beets. Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica. Bears do not... What is going on? What are you doing? Last week, I was in a drugstore, and I saw these glasses. Four dollars. And it only cost me $7 to recreate the rest of the ensemble, and that is a grand total of $11.
James O'Barr
- The Crow
He hears men's voices, shouts, so evil and grim he hears their names: Tin Tin, Fun Boy, T-Bird, Top Dollar and Tom Tom. The sounds sink into his heart like ice and burn in his head with a heat so intense it glows white.
Marillion
- Seasons End
"Getting close to seasons end." I heard somebody say that it might never snow again in England. Snowflakes in a newborn's fist, sledging on a hill, are these things we'll never see in England. We'll tell our children's children why we grew so tall and reached so high. We left our footprints in the earth and punched a hole right through the sky. We'll tell them how we changed the world and how we tamed the sea and of seasons they will never know in England.
They Might Be Giants
- Ana Ng
Make a hole with a gun perpendicular to the name of this town in a desktop globe. Exit wound in a foreign nation - showing the home of the one this was written for. My apartment looks upside down from there. Water spirals the wrong way out the sink - and her voice is a backwards record. It's like a whirlpool, and it never ends. Ana Ng and I are getting old and we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence.
They Might Be Giants
- Put Your Hand Inside the Puppet Head
Memo to myself: do the dumb things I gotta do, touch the puppet head. Quit my job down at the carwash, didn't have to write no one a goodbye note. That said, "The check's in the mail, and I'll see you in church, and don't you ever change." If the pu-pu-puppet head was only bu-bu-busted in - I'll see you after school. Put your hand inside the puppet head. Put your hand inside the puppet head. Put your hand inside, put your hand inside, put your hand inside the puppet head.
Oscar Wilde
- A Portrait of Dorian Gray
You must have a cigarette. A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite and it leaves one unsatisfied. What more can one want?
John Kennedy Toole
- A Confederacy of Dunces
Employers sense in me a denial of their values. They fear me. I suspect that they can see that I am forced to function in a century I loathe. This was true even when I worked for the New Orleans Public Library.

- Marx
The tl;dr for Karl Marx's theory of surplus value is that the rich exploit the poor by paying them less in wages than what their labor is really worth. If a worker at Taco Bell gets paid nine dollars an hour, the amount of money the worker makes for the corporation in an hour is actually higher. Other than the amount of time that a worker earns the nine dollars, the worker is enslaved.

- Laws
Laws are inherently conservative. It takes the same effort to abolish them as it takes to enact them, which weighs in favor of preserving the status quo. The workaround is to insert a "sunset provision" that says the law will expire on a given date.

- Past and future visions of the future
Since the advent of cinema, science fiction filmmakers have consistently concretized their visions of what life in the future might look like. As CGI constantly improves and VR becomes more mainstream, the visions become more tangible. Kubrick was already remarkably prescient in "2001," and now we have shows like the Expanse. We have Unreal Engine 5. As we improve our visions of the future, our predictions are altered. They become more accurate.
Madara Uchiha (Masashi Kishimoto)
- Wake Up to Reality
Listen! Everywhere you look in this world, wherever there is light there will always be shadows to be found as well. As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist. The selfish intent of wanting to preserve peace initiates wars, and hatred is born in order to protect love.
Itachi Uchiha
- Reality
Each of us lives dependent and bound by our individual knowledge, and our awareness; all that is what we call "reality." However, both knowledge and awareness are equivocal. One's reality might be another's illusion. We all live inside our own fantasies. Don't you think that's true?
John Legend
- All Of Me
My head's under water, but I'm breathing fine. You're crazy and I'm out of my mind. 'Cause all of me loves all of you. Love your curves and all your edges. All your perfect imperfections. Give your all to me, I'll give my all to you. You're my end and my beginning. Even when I lose, I'm winning.
Dennis Reynolds
- You Haven't Thought of the Smell!
Dee... I swear to God, you would be of more use to me if I skinned you and turned that skin into a lampshade. Or fashioned it into a piece of high-end luggage. I could even add you to my collection!
George Carlin
- A modern man
I'm a modern man, a man for the millennium, digital and smoke free. A diversified multi-cultural, post-modern deconstruction that is anatomically and ecologically incorrect. I've been uplinked and downloaded. I've been input and outsourced. I know the upside of downsizing. I know the downside of upgrading.
Donald Rumsfeld
- Know Unknowns
Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tends to be the difficult ones.

One issue with immigration not talked about is that for example, Mexico has about twice as many horses per capita compared to the USA. This means it is crucial to allow Mexican immigrants to escape from being surrounded by those vicious equine murder beasts while ensuring that those responsible for the high horse population don't bring their horses to the US.
