This is a place to share any wise/inspirational/funny/dumb quotes spoken by anyone, about anything. You can even quote yourself, or other people you know. (Although you should probably have that person’s permission first.)

📚 Appreciator of BooksTwo quotes from class today.
Tutor: “Does anyone have math problems to present?”
A random kid: “I have problems. They’re just not math problems.”
Tutor: “Yes, I didn’t do all the homework myself.”
A random kid: “I’ll have to talk to your parents about this!”
Tutor: “Well, you can talk to one of them. I’m not sure you can contact the other, now.”
Students: “Oh…”
Tutor: *sarcastically* “Ba-dum, tss.”
“Everything is a mountain”
You better believe I have quotes.
"Real love is for your good, not for your comfort." -Justin Whitmel Earley
Since we seem to have a theme of humor at the moment, I’ll add one, too.
Ashley: “It’s like I always say, too much information can make your brain choke.”
Walter: “Maybe. But not enough information makes for a lot of dead cats.”
Ashley: “Dead cats? What in the world are you talking about?”
Walter: “You know, ‘curiosity killed the cat’. And I have enough curiosity to start a feline genocide.”
(Circles of Seven by Bryan Davis)
"Real love is for your good, not for your comfort." -Justin Whitmel Earley
A little serious…
“The Civil War never truly ended.” – Shelps
This is one of my favorite quotes, not just because of who said it (you would not know who “Shelps” is, but if you did, you’d believe those words as much as I) But because it is so true.
“A hero is the one who bleeds.”
“It’s as a vow and it’s as a rule, that the world must be harsh and cruel.”
“Hiding a burning ember only makes more of a fire.” – Aden Florain
A little funny…
“Plasma Cheetos!” – my class
"You need French Toast."
#AnduthForever (hopefully 💕)“Any sufficiently explained magic system is equivalent to science.” – Jonas (yes, I’m very wise. We can all ignore that this is a not-so clever adaptation of someone else’s saying, as well as the fact that I’ve never said this aloud.)

📚 Appreciator of BooksOh, I have so many dumb, out-of-context quotes.
Here are a few of the less unhinged ones:
Little cousin #1: “Have you ever had grilled cheese but without the cheese and not grilled?”
Little cousin #2: “So… bread?”
Little cousin #1: “No.”
“And that’s why I think Snape is emo. He’s all greasy and sad.” – my father
“Just remember, every time you get dressed in the morning, if you die, that’s your forever ghost outfit.” – someone on the radio
(I have serious quotes too somewhere but I lost my commonplace)
“Nothing says autumn like slurpin’ apples.” -my uncle
The ones y’all posted are great XD
“Nothing says autumn like slurpin’ apples.” -my uncle
“Knowledge is power. France is bacon.”

Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.
Ok here are a few more…
“I laughed so hard I heard the water giggling in my stomach.” -my brother

“The bright side of it is,” said Puddleglum, “That if we break our necks getting down the cliff, then we’re safe from being drowned in the river.” (The Silver Chair, C.S. Lewis)
"Real love is for your good, not for your comfort." -Justin Whitmel Earley

I have so many other good quotes I hardly know which ones to choose. Hmmm… here are some from the founding fathers/American Revolution.
“For though the flame of liberty may sometimes cease to shine, the coal can never expire.” – Thomas Paine, The American Crisis
“Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value.” -Thomas Paine, The American Crisis
“Thirteen clocks were made to strike together, a perfection of mechanism which no artist had ever before effected.” -John Adams, referring to the thirteen colonies
“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.” -Benjamin Franklin
“You will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make a good use of it.” -John Adams
“The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.” -George Washington
“Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be bought at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!” -Patrick Henry
"Real love is for your good, not for your comfort." -Justin Whitmel Earley
