What should I use for my senior quote?

Ok… I have no idea what to use for my senior quote in my High School’s yearbook. We’re each allowed several lines (generally 2 or three short quotes).

One of the quotes will be the “wonder people make to is etc…” found in my sig line.

Any ideas for others?

Feel free to ask me any questions about my personality, music preferences… ect.

thanks,
Clay

“‘Shame’? What is this thing that you call, ‘shame,’?”

How about What a short, completely normal trip it has been?

Hehe… ** interface2x**, I liked that one.

“Don’t let it end like this! Tell them I said something.” The last words of Pancho Villa.

Don’t know about the quote, but when it comes time to sign the yearbooks, a rubber stamp (with your signature) that says “It has been really great knowing you, have a fun summer and a wonderful life!” will save you a lot of writing…

“Forget him, he’s gone!”

The Aliens fans will chuckle.

Bryan, that one’s amusing. heh. I am especially interested in obscure quotes in movies or books.

“I’ll piss on your grave”

or

“Living well is the best revenge”

Ya gotta go with something to make 'em wonder what the hell you mean, exactly…

“I want to share something with you – the three little sentences that will get you through life. Number one, “Cover for me.” Number two, “Oh, good idea, boss.” Number three, “It was like that when I got here.”

-Homer Simpson

That was my senior quote. It seems to fit what a senior quote should be for some reason. Plus, you get the Simpsons in your yearbook. Woo-Hoo!

“There’s a time and a place for everything - and it’s called College.” ~South Park

“Tulips are at least pretty.”
By Triskadecamus.

Or maybe “The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason.”
Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard’s Almanack, 1758

Or maybe, “Solipsism is its own reward.” Crow, MST3k.

Or maybe my personal favorite, “Furthermore, that common advantage which results from a self-governing state is not recognized by anybody so long as it is possessed - the possibility of enjoying what one has, freely and without incurring suspicion for instance, the assurance that one’s wife and children will be respected, the absence of fear for oneself - for no one admits that he incurs an obligation to another merely because that other has done him no wrong.”
-Niccolo Machiavelli, The Discourses, book 1 discourse 16 (italics mine)

Oh, By the way… I go to a Catholic HS (I’m not Catholic, long story there) and I love poking fun at religion… Nothing too extreme, though.

A couple bumper stickers I have that go into the “psudo-extreme” catagory are:

  • Religions are just cults with more members.

  • The last time we mixed religion and politics people got burned at the stake

and one that I might use:

  • Love your enemies, It really gets them confused

“One can often recognize herd animals by their tendency to carry
bibles.” – Allen Wheelis in “The Signal”

“Man has got the only True Religion - several of them”

  • Samuel Clemens

“What if there where no hypothetical questions?”

We got to leave quotes on the Senior Wall at my school, next to our hand prints. My quote:

“You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.” - Obi Wan

I hated high school. :slight_smile:

You know, this suddenly reminds me that I was probably asked what my senior quote at some point.

Anyway, for a yearbook quote nothing can beat absurdity. Whatever you say, it MUST MEAN NOTHING AT THE TIME. Hopefully sometime people will look back on it and say, “I didn’t know what he meant at the time, but now it really makes sense.”

Then you’ll have had the last laugh.

So Long, Suckers!!!

“Hail Satan!” – Anton Szandor LaVey

Oh, nevermind.
