Temat: The Quotes Thread (funny/ philosophical/ inspirational)

Quotes are fantastic, persuasive, convincing, funny, inspirational and are used constantly during talks, presentations and arguments to boost credibility.

So... inspired by Adam Lipiński's great quote from Helen Rowland: "A Bachelor of Arts is one who makes love to a lot of women, and yet has the art to remain a bachelor."

... I declare this thread opened!

And now a quote thread killer by Oscar Wilde:
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone elses opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."Krzysztof Bryzek edytował(a) ten post dnia 11.08.08 o godzinie 20:52
