Are there quotes that have been said that you really like and try to follow it well?
Here's one I really like. :eek:

"The darkest nights produce the brightest stars."

I like it alot, when I'm really sad, I try and think about this and it makes me feel better. :)

Share some inspirational quotes here! They may even provide encouragement for fellow members as well. :)

You can add a quote from literally anything, like a song, show, dream, video game... you can even make your own if you want. :)

I like it because when something bad happens to me, I think of that and it makes me feel a bit better.

ok not a quote i'm not much of a quote person but i love this poem by martin niem?ller, i think it's especially important in society now

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

idk i just find it so powerful

oh for some background it was written by a man who supported adolf hitler but came to oppose him later
 
"If you can't take a joke, then how can you take yourself seriously?"
 
"Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."

Not sure who said it, but I've always loved it.
 
This is a movie quote by the way - "You don't understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could've been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am."
 
My favorite quote is the one on my signature! It's from Heroes of Olympus and the backstory of it makes me super emo.
 
"Fall down seven times, stand up eight." - Japanese proverb.

"If you think God's there, He is. If you don't, He isn't. And if that's what God's like, I wouldn't worry about it." - from the novel Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami.
 
“For what it's worth... it's never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you've never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.” - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2009)
 
Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

Kind of a way to say don't care what other people might think, it's the opinions of those who you care about that have any weight.

"Les jaloux sont des incapables, c'est bien connu, et des peureux, par-dessus le march?" (Rejean Ducharme)
(rough translation: Jealous/envious people are incompetent, it's well known, and coward on top of that)



?Early success is a terrible teacher. You're essentially being rewarded for a lack of preparation, so when you find yourself in a situation where you must prepare, you can't do it. You don't know how.? (Chris Hatfield)



?Even a stopped clock is right twice a day"



"They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." (Andy Warhol)



"All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone." (Blaise Pascal)



"Genius lives only one storey above madness" (Schopenhauer)



"You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." (Little Prince)​


Too many...
 
i'm pretty much a quote person and i love quotes, but the one that comes to mind whenever someone asks me this is:

''Everything will be okay in the end if it's not okay, then its not the end.'' idk what this means completely, but the promise of it being okay in the end gives me hope that everything will be okay. and well if it's not, then it's not the end. this quote is the one that's resonated with me the most, even though it's so simple.

quotes help me through times where i'm feeling lost and need inspiration tbh, which is why i tend to use them a lot myself when somebody's feeling down. they help me to give the best advice that i can too.
