Individual quotes
Have you ever been daydreaming, working, smoking, writing, thinking, or mindlessly droning about, and suddenly you think of something than in that moment makes perfect sense? Maybe later you brush it off as something pointless or not even coherent; sometimes you rather say "man, that would be a nice quote to be remembered".
Either way, I won't believe it just happens to me, so I wanted to see what kinds of one-liners you come up with every now and then. When one comes up, just remember it so that you can share it.

Hah - this must be stupid but:
I'd rather know nothing and believe something than know everything and believe nothing.

That's pretty slick.
My favorite quote was in reference to a girl who'd be very pretty if she tried but never did.
"All the lazy girls wake up in the morning, look at a mirror, and say 'fuck this, where's my camo pants?'"
Also, my friend Aaron was asking about my new hubcaps and said:
"Are they fly or just shiny?"

When my friend asked me which gender I prefer after I told her I was bisexual, I responded with, "Girls. Are you kidding? I love Girls, even when they're men."

It's not epic or profound but someone once called one of my female friends a "stupid bitch" and I must admit I don't think this was all my quote, some of it was drawn from my recent playings of FF: Tactics.
Anyway I turn right to them and (in a very pompous voice) said:
"Govern your tongue, ser! Lest you wish me to wrench it from your throat with my bare hands!"
Well I felt 'cool' saying it at the time XD

I came up with one earlier this year and it's stuck with me ever since.
"Awareness is suffering."

On another board a said the following, and it became my sig there. I've repeated it here since.
"One day, there will be a cure for stupidity. There will be no survivors."

"A vagina is the ultimate doctor's note. A guy can't just go up to his boss and say 'sir, my nuts hurt. Can I go home?'...the guy'll get laughed at, if not fired. But a woman can double over in pain for 2 seconds, scream cramps, and she's got a pass for the week!"

There are a few of my accidental quotes saved in my friend's phone (it seems to double as a computer- Nokia N95). The one I always remember is from when we were out shopping and I had to pick up a few things but the shops were nearly closed. I had to prioritise my purchases.
"Look, I need eyeliner, black nailpolish and cobweb fabric more than I need food, okay?"
(in context- we still had enough food for a few days at home, but there was an event that night that required I UberGoff myself. The best quotes are those taken out of context)
He laughed for ten whole minutes, and took great joy in telling many of our mutual friends of this phrase for some days.

My friend got bored one morning and splashed me with water from her water bottle. While we were grading quizzes, I randomly said "What was in your water? I swear there are microbes crawling down my eyebrow." She giggled about it for the rest of the class period.

Do not protect me.
Do not restrain me.
Let me take my chances.
Let me die and let me laugh.

"Sam, you're plant tried to kill me...I ALMOST DIED!"
I don't remember saying this, as there was a fair amount of intoxicants involved, but my friends find it funny to this day.
