Anyone else notice?

 * Hahaha, brilliant! "Life is too important to be taken seriously" - Oscar Wilde (who shares the same birthday as me)

Sub-themes
What do people think of the current section headings: Inspiring; Life as a form of Death; Silly? Do you think they are:
 * 1) a great idea
 * 2) useful in concept but with slight changes (Perhaps Silly could be renamed to something else?)
 * 3) a bad idea

Maybe section headings within theme pages could be regarded as sub-themes, assuming a theme divided somewhat neatly into sub-themes (a lthough above a certain size the page would split into separate pages and link to each other)? Nanobug 02:36, 17 Sep 2003 (UTC)

quotes from fictional characters
I don't think fictional characters should be quoted without either reference to the source of the quote, or the fact that the character is fictional... example Jack Handy = not a person, fictional 'character'  Saturday Night Live?, therefore without attribution, possible copyright issue, regardless of that though, it seems wrong to mix say Bart Simpson with Thomas Paine... comments?66.245.206.16 17:35, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)Pedant 17:36, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Acutally, Jack Handey (note spelling) is a real person.

The following quote does not actually appear in any episode of "The Office" and was in the public domain beforehand (quoted in a University of Bath aeronautical engineering thesis (gas turbine film cooling) in 2000 as John Bedfield):

"Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines." - Rickey Gervais in "The Office"

I would like to question the validity of the quote, “Life's a game it can't be won only played.* **Unknown Philosopher** (2010)” as it is probably a spurious quotation without any known source.
 * "Anonymous" quotes can be included if they are cited to notable sources that quote them. This isn't, and I am removing it as patently made up. ~ Ningauble 16:44, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Questionable Quote

 * Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Philosophical: in relation to death

 * I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.
 * Gilda Radner


 * I'm not afraid of death. It's the stake one puts up in order to play the game of life.
 * Jean Giraudoux, Amphitryon


 * If man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
 * Martin Luther King, Jr.


 * Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterward. These are games; one must first answer.
 * Albert Camus


 * Sometimes, dead is bettah

 * Sathish V & Sandip Kumar Chauhan


 * Some people live to be. I just live.
 * Susie de la Chappelle


 * Each person that has ever lived has had the same problem. They wanted to be remembered by everyone for what they were. To be forgotten is worse than death. People wanted to be remembered by other things than books and stories. But in the end that's all we can be remembered by. There's nothing you can do at this points but live. But when I'm to die I want to be remembered by one thing. I want people to say "He was the type of person that believed and saw the good in others even when they couldn't believe or see it in themselves." That is how I want to be remembered.
 * John M. Ludwig


 * ...for you to be here now trillions of drifting atoms had somehow to assemble in an intricate and intriguingly obliging manner to create you. It's an arrangement so specialized and particular that it has never been tried before and will only exist this once. For the next many years (we hope) these tiny particles will uncomplainingly engage in all the billions of deft, cooperative efforts necessary to keep you intact and let you experience the supremely agreeable but generally underappreciated state known as existence. Why atoms take this trouble is a bit of a puzzle. Being you is not a gratifying experience at the atomic level. For all their devoted attention, your atoms don't actually care about you — indeed, don't even know that you are there. They don't even know that they are there. They are mindless particles, after all, and not even themselves alive. (It is a slightly arresting notion that if you were to pick yourself apart with tweezers, one atom at a time, you would produce a mound of fine atomic dust, none of which had ever been alive but all of which had once been you.) Yet somehow for the period of your existence they will answer to a single overarching impulse to keep you you.
 * Bill Bryson, *A Short History of Nearly Everything


 * We each carry the weight of personal choice and the responsibility for playing our part in furthering the persistence of life. At the same time, we each hold within the possibility for an awareness of the lightness at work in existence, the ultimate illusion of the material world, the absence of meaning beyond the meaning of that which presents itself to us.

 * Adrian Serna


 * I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
 * Eleanor Roosevelt


 * If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor.

 * T. S. Eliot (1888-1965), American Poet


 * We are a wondrous gathering of atoms formed into an incredible being, capable of experiencing our own existence. While we live this experience we must be thankful for it, and live it fully. When it ends, we return to what we were before it began. What we create and leave behind is our gift to those who will follow us. We return to the universe as we came from it, to be recreated, and recycled into the infinite all.

Humorous

 * The BBC would like to make a correction: several weeks ago, a singer was on this program singing a song to the effect that life was a bowl of cherries. The BBC would like to point out that Life is not a bowl of cherries, but rather Life is a state of being categorized by organic metabolic reactions. The BBC would also like to apologize to one viewer who, in an attempt to take his own life, instead took a bowl of cherries, and was then promptly sick in the upstairs lavatory.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
An editor has made the following comment regarding the quote, "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away":
 * This mystery has been solved! While sourcing quotes for a book I'm writing, I was shocked to find this popular quote in a 1989 thirty-two-page booklet on Tahitian dance. (Tahitian Choreographies, Dance Fantasy Productions, August 1, 1989, page 36.) I called the author, Vicki Corona, on April 17, 2012, and she said that, to the best of her knowledge, the quote was hers because she always wrote original material for the series of dance booklets she produced. This book is by far the earliest publication of this quote that I could find. Conclusion: Credit Vicki Corona.
