Life is too short to go through it being ashamed of who you are because someone else thinks you should be. It's your life, not theirs, and they have no right to force you feel that way unless you give it to them.

People should be allowed to do whatever the **** they want, as long as they're not hurting anyone. Mind your own ******* business.

Your beliefs don't make you better than anyone, your behavior does.

You can choose your family. The people you happen to be biologically related to aren't your family, the people you feel the closest to are, whether or not those are one and the same.

All of those are very good.

Some I've been living by for years myself.

There's nothing like wisdom in scatology.

Here's one:

Never spend your life waiting for something.

I've seen people who've wasted years of their life waiting. Waiting for a situation to get better, waiting to be happy, waiting due to doubt or fear or whatever. I've done it a bit myself. And it's horrible. It's not even life, IMO. Rather, it's the closest thing to the living dead you can get in the real world.

"Why does the glass have to be half full or half empty? It's always full, just not always with water"

"If you don't laugh, you cry"

"Family doesn't end with blood"

"Always look on the bright side of life"

"If you don't make any bad decisions you'll die having never really lived"

"Don't look at the big picture, you'll end up paralysed by it"

Alright, I'm gonna tell you this because we're friends. But sometimes, in the heat of the moment, it's forgivable to go ass to mouth.

Optimus_Prime_ · 05-25-2012, 06:09 PM

I was gonna say I don't have one but...

...then I saw this, and yeah, that.

I heard one "Would you rather be sane while risking it all, or crazy while risking nothing?"

Funny thing is how those elements play with each other. Because more often than not those people ignore that they're stupid so they are not ashamed of anything.

CConn · 05-26-2012, 01:22 PM

Don't worry, we'll make them ashamed.

Most of my personal philosophies have already been mentioned. This one obviously comes from TDK, but I'm a firm believer in it.

"If you're good at something, never do it for free."

It was a joke. Guess you never saw Clerks 2.

A few Bukowski quotes

“My ambition is handicapped by laziness”

“You have to die a few times before you can really
live.”

“there are worse things
than being alone
but it often takes
decades to realize this
and most often when you do
it's too late
and there's nothing worse
than too late”

“An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.”

I feel like that should be the other way around...

'Would you rather be crazy while risking it all, or sane while risking nothing'

Bukowski is one of those guys who helped shape my views on the 9 to 5 world.

But, being Anubis, I'm surprised you didn't put his quote "Sometimes, you just have to pee in the sink."

I'm para-phrasing Alejandro Jodorowsky:

Death shouldn't be a sad thing. It's like the end of a poem. When it finishes you just go, 'how nice.'
