Most of my favorite quotes are from books that I’ve read.

Here is one from to kill a Mockingbird that I love:

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view… Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”

A few from the greatest mind of my generation, Karl Pilkington:

  • I find that if you just talk, your mouth comes up with stuff.
  • You won’t get anything done by planning.
  • Any problem solved is a new problem made.
  • If an animal is named after what it eats, how interesting is it?
  • Jellyfish are 97% water or something, so how much are they doing? Just give them another 3% and make them water.
  • They keep saying that sea levels are rising an all this. It’s not got to do with the icebergs melting, it’s because there’s too many fish in it. Get rid of some of the fish and the water will drop. Simple. Basic science.
  • People moan about drugs being tested on animals. I sort of think it depends innit. If the drug’s aspirin and the monkey’s got a headache, is it right?
  • Homeless Chinese fella. I’ve never seen one of them.
  • If you live in a glass house, don’t be chucking stuff about.
  • You can only talk rubbish if you’re aware of knowledge.
  • Language is a powerful thing init…er…

I could go on for days with this, but you get the picture.
