I'm always making up a lot of one-liners to shoot my friends to cheer them up and little expressions that I think hold soem measure of wisdom in them. So, now I have a place to put them. Feel free to add any of your own.
Try to include the author if possible if it's a quote; if it doesn't have a registered author, write "Anonymous". If you've forgotten the author, please write "unknown".

For a collection of "pick me up" quotes, I have a lot of them on my profile. Have your window maximized though or they scrunch up together and are hard to read. I've been meaning to add a bunch too, so if you like them check in on the profile every now and again. ^^

So, Puzzle's first nuggets of wisdom.

"Every day we should strive to be like the flowers. No matter how much rain may fall, they only continue in their beauty, and use the rain to grow."
-Meh

"Sometimes there is no greater joy than to simply know that you are loved, and someone cares that you are alive."
-Meh

"The day we stop trying is the day we die, for we consist of dreams, live on hope, and grow with hardship."
-Meh

"When life kicks you down, go take some classes so that the next time it tries you can block it."
-Meh

"Every rose has it's thorns. But then, does that not make them all the more alluring?"
-Meh

"He who is contented with nothing is either the most foolish fool or the wisest of the wise."
-Meh

"No one is ever too busy to stop and smell a flower, to watch the river flow, or to wander in the stars. It is in these small moments that we learn the most important things."
-Meh

"You have all of eternity to be dead and only now to live, so live!"
-Meh

"Not everything has to have a rhyme or reason, and that is one of the hardest things to learn."
-Meh

One of my favourite Houseisms EVER.

House: He was hit by a bullet!
Cameron: Someone shot him?
House: No, they threw it at him.

And this next one was by me, trying to describe what I thought about when I heard the following line from Romeo and Juliet.
-"Let two more years wither in their pride/ and I'll think her ripe to be a bride."
I'm terribly sorry if I messed that up, but I don't have the book anymore..
So anyways, I was trying to say how when I heard the word "ripe" I thought of a fruit, and how I thought that was wierd, since they were talking about love and stuff.

"You don't love a fruit... you eat it."

And of course, my entire table group (and the teacher) looks at me with the classic "you're insane" look. Whoo, wasn't that a fun class. XD

Ooooh!
And then there's one I haven't said in FOREVER! I loved it... years ago. XD

"When life gives you lemons, squeeze the juice into a water gun and spray it in other people's eyes!"

Just thought it was a funny take on the whole thing.

Oh, and from a song I love at the moment. (It's in my signature, too).

"I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose..."
-Your Ex-Lover is Dead, Stars.

My science teacher has a whole crapload of quotes around the chalkboard. I think by now I must have read them all; they're all really awesome. My favourite ones are:

Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight. You've got to kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. --Bruce Cockburn [which are song lyrics, I think]

and

The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; if there is any reaction at all, both are transformed. -- Carl Jung

If you can't beat them, you're not fighting hard enough. -- Me xP
