Post any quote that has inspired you most. Maybe a quote that cheers you up when you're down, or maybe a quote that motivates you to do your tasks, anything like that and maybe it could also do the same for other users who read the quotes you post. :3

So, I'll start out with my own favorite quote:

John Lennon said:
“I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now?”

No way, no way in hell. I’ve invested my entire aptitude in magic for this. Would you have me develop a technique that allows me to see through women’s clothing instead? I made such a choice bearing my thoughts, worries and all. I shall...I shall destroy more women’s clothes and then...and then...and then someday, as I gain the ability to destroy them just by looking, I shall continue my fight!

- Names don't matter. What's important is how you live your life.
- The moment pride is lost, freedom is also lost. [1]
- You started this war! Was that the will of God?
- Your actions have meaning only if they hold true to your ideals.

1 - [To Balk] A real human being? Don't make me laugh!! How valuable is a 'freedom' you didn't earn yourself? The moment 'pride' is lost, 'freedom' is also lost!! You lost your freedom when you lost your pride and confidence!! 'Equality's' not something you're given. It's something you fight for! Any 'freedom' gotten from Lucavi isn't true freedom!

I like this. Thanks for sharing. I also had this:

"You have nothing to fear, but fear itself". Not sure who made it though.
