Dead Poets Society / A Good Quote

[BladeRunner]

I like a nice quote, I thought it would be interesting to share a few from whatever medium:

I'll start with a little Shakespearean job I've always liked:

"A coward dies a thousand times before his death, but the valiant taste of death but once. It seems to me most strange that men should fear, seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come."

 

[MikeH]

When talking about bravely this is currently my favourite:

"Can a man still be brave if he's afraid?"
"That is the only time a man can be brave."

 

[Lars Lust]

"Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

Macbeth

"Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana."

-Unknown

 

[TAG Manager]

"Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana."

-Unknown

...and then I took an arrow to the knee...

I COULD NOT RESIST.

The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers :
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon !

Making love to a woman who thinks you are beautiful"
