I don't really live life by a Quote, but more a Sense of "honour" That I've accumulated.

With incompetence comes the illusion of superiority. Stupid people are too stupid to know how stupid they are.

"Nothing matters, unless you want it to matter."

What people say about you reflects more on them than it does on you.

If you want the rainbow you have to put up with the rain.

Everyone's life is a pack of lies, so choose the lies you can live with.

Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.

We are a world of people, not ethnic groups, not races, and not different descriptions of people on paper. We are human beings. And if there is one thing that human beings have in common, it is the desperate need to be free.

Here is a set of quotes I really appreciate.

There's a lot of quotes that I really like but the one I've taken to heart the most is this one by Emily Dickinson:

"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all."

It's important to me because it describes my life fairly accurately. There's been several periods of time where the only thing that has kept me going is the hope that things might get better one day. Which, hopefully will be soon.
