One of the other threads here has taken on a bit of a different direction. The "Comparisons and Descriptives" thread has slowly absorbed a bunch of quotes as I got a little lazy. Quotes are a different animal, require some research, and deserve their own place to shine. So I'm starting this thread so that they will have a home, rather than being buried among similes, metaphors, and proverbs. I will end up moving them over here i think..... along with the new ones as they are added.
So I'll start this off with a few from the other thread. PLEASE: Join in with a quote. Even if you can't remember it exactly. If you remember it. it's probably worth remembering.!!
“Letting the cat out of the bag…is a whole lot easier than putting him back in.”
Attributed to Will Rogers
TRUTH..!!!
"There is no war so hateful to the gods as a war between kin; and no war so bloody as a war between dragons."
Not sure of the attribution. Maybe from 'Game Of Thrones'..?? Maybe..??
Great quote.
"It is not easy to tame one’s mind. Very few of us can manage it, even when taught. We doubt ourselves; we doubt the sincerity and motives of others. We cling to childish beliefs even as the evidence around us proves otherwise."
