I love quotes. They can be inspiring, encouraging, and all that jazz. So I though Iâd make a thread where anyone can post a few of their favorite quotes.
Here are some of mine.
âWe must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy.â ~Albus Dumbledore.
âWords are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic.â ~Albus Dumbledore
âI have found a desire within myself that no experience in this world can satisfy; the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.â ~C. S. Lewis
âTrue humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.â ~C. S. Lewis
âI believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.â ~C. S. Lewis
âGood friends are like stars. You donât always see them, but you know theyâre always there.â ~Unknown

aldarley.wordpress.comDecember 17, 2017 at 1:28 pm #56746@epicaddie2 Good idea! Here are some of my favoritesâŚ
âIs not this a dream come true in ways undreamed?â â (canât remember her name. ARGH!)
âA heart thatâs made of gold canât really beat at all.â â Switchfoot
âCould it be that on my worst days // How You love me simply will not change // What if itâs really not about what I do but what You did?â â Mercyme
âYouâre the passion that Iâm never losing.â â TobyMac
âRemember who you are.â â Nia Wingfeather
Basically the entire song Sinking Deep by Hillsong Young & Free
âSpirit lead me where my trust is without borders // Let me walk upon the waters, wherever you may call me // Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander // And my faith will be made stronger in the presence of my Savior.â â Hillsong United
âThere ainât no darkness strong enough that could tear you out from my heart // There ainât no strength thatâs strong enough that could tear this love apart.â â Switchfoot
âAll of my life, in every season // You are still God. I have a reason to sing // I have a reason to worshipâ â Hillsong United
âI look up to the mountains. Does my strength come from the mountains? No, my strength comes from God, who made heaven and earth⌠and the mountains.â â For King & Country
Â
As you can see, I am very influenced by Christian music XD
You can pronounce it however you want.
December 17, 2017 at 2:06 pm #56750@epicaddie2 đ This is a really great idea
These ares some quotes that really inspire meJust because I play the piano, doesnât mean Iâm not/Iâm not willing to take you down⌠Iâm sorry. â Tyler Joseph, Twenty One Pilots
đ Okay, thatâs one mostly just funny. But it makes me laugh XDâI wish it need not have happened in my time,â said Frodo.
âSo do I,â said Gandalf, âand so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.â
â J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the RingâSometimes standing against evil is more important than defeating it. The greatest heroes stand because it is right to do so, not because they believe they will walk away with their lives. Such selfless courage is a victory in itself.â
â N.D. Wilson (Dandelion Fire (100 Cupboards, #2))âCowards live for the sake of living, but for heroes, life is a weapon, a thing to be spent, a gift to be given to the weak and the lost and the weary, even to the foolish and the cowardly.â
â N.D. Wilson (Empire of Bones (Ashtown Burials #3))âTo love is to be selfless. To be selfless is to be fearless. To be fearless is to strip enemies of their greatest weapon. Even if they break our bodies and drain our blood, we are unvanquished. Our goal was never to live; our goal is to love. It is the goal of all noble men and women. Give all that can be given. Give even your live itself.â
â N.D. Wilson (Empire of Bones (Ashtown Burials #3))âLife before Death.
Strength before Weakness.
Journey before Destination.â
â Brandon Sanderson (The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive, #1))âSometimes the prize is not worth the costs. The means by which we achieve victory are as important as the victory itself.â
â Brandon Sanderson (The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive, #1))Â
âI will protect even those I hate, so long as it is rightâ
â Kaladin Stormblessed, Words of Radiance, Stormlight Archive #2 by Brandon Sanderson
âI will remember those who have been forgottenâ
-Lift, Edgedancer, Stormlight 2.5 by Brandon Sanderson
Â
There are things we can do
But from the things that work there are only two
And from the two that we choose to do
Peace will win and fear will lose
It is faith and thereâs sleep
We need to pick one please because
Faith is to be awake
And to be awake is for us to think
And for us to think is to be alive
And I will try with every rhyme
To come across like I am dying
To let you know you need to try to think-Tyler Joseph, Car Radio, Twenty One Pilots
XD (practically half the song)

Also, Daeus has 22 turtles in his signature.December 17, 2017 at 5:00 pm #56788@dekreel Ooooooh I like the first one!
@sam-kowal Ah! I love that Gandalf/Tolkien quote!!!Hereâs a few more.
âEveryday has the potential to be the greatest day of your life.â ~Lin-Manuel Miranda
âNot all those who wander are lost.â ~J. R. R. Tolkien
âEven if it isnât a piece of work that finds an audience, it will teach you thinks you could have learning no other way.â ~J. K. Rowling
âSo do not ever quit out of fear of rejection. Maybe your third, fourth, fiftieth song/novel/painting will be the one that âmakes itâ, that wins the plaudits⌠but youâd never have got there without finishing the others (all of which will not be of more interest to your audience).â ~J. K. Rowling

aldarley.wordpress.comDecember 17, 2017 at 5:03 pm #56789@epicaddie2 Splendid idea! (and @sam-kowal , that one from Not Today is one of my favorites EVER.)
Lessee⌠*looks through memory*
Donât panic! -Hitchhikerâs Guide to the Galaxy
Why do write like youâre running out of time? Write day and night like youâre running out of time? Everyday you fight like youâre running out of time, â Hamilton
All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost. â Take a guess. đ
The enemyâs best efforts to blacken the world would only serve to scatter the light like stars in the heavens. -Andrew Peterson
Hey girl, donât conform now, no one else got a soul like you,
Hey girl, youâre a strong one, but none of us are bulletproof. -Switchfoot

âIt is not worth living for if it is not worth dying forâ Elisabeth Elliot (thats a paraphrase, Â I canât remember the exact words)
âGodâs plan never ends in ashesâ Elisabeth Elliot
âAll the wretched of the earth, there is a flame that never dies. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will riseâ Les Miserables âDo you Hear The People Sing Respriseâ
Thereâs more but those are all I can think of off the top of my head.
INFP Queen of the Kingdom commander of an army of origami cranes and a sabre from Babylon.

@epicaddie2 *ridiculously loud* HAMILTON!!!!! Ok, I just needed to do that. xDYou have?? Thatâs so cool! Do you like Switchfoot? (Iâm sorry if weâve had this conversation before. I think my memory chip is overloaded with song lyrics đ )
Oh, hereâs another quote:
You use way to many parenthesis! -Me addressing myself đ

December 17, 2017 at 5:30 pm #56809@daughteroftheking I love Switchfoot!!! I havenât gotten to meet Jon Foreman yet, which is kinda strange because Iâve been to several parties and his family was there, and when I went to the BroAm (do you know what that is?) they were right next to me.
Our good friends are good friends with the Foremans đ
Whatâs your favorite Hamilton song? Character? Line?
