Simon Birch

Simon Birch is a 1998 coming of age film about a twelve year old boy with stunted growth who looks up to God and is confident that he has a plan for him.
 * Directed by Mark Steven Johnson. Written by Mark Steven Johnson, based on the novel A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving.

Destiny has big plans for little Simon Birch.

Simon Birch

 * [At Rebecca's tombstone.] Into paradise...may the angels...lead you.
 * [on the bus that plunged into a lake] Stop it! [Everyone looks around] I'm not going to let anything happen to any of you, understand?"

Adult Joe Wenteworth (Narrator)

 * [Visiting Simon's grave.] I am doomed to remember a boy with a wrecked voice, not because of his voice or because he was the smallest person I ever knew, or even because he was the instrument of my mother's death but because he is the reason I believe in God. What faith I have, I owe it to Simon Birch, a boy I grew up with in Gravestown, Maine. It is Simon who had me a believer.
 * Our Sunday school teacher was an unhappy woman by the name of Miss Leavey. Her name suited her perfectly as she was always leaving class.
 * [At the birth scene of Simon Birch.] Simon Birch was the smallest delivery ever recorded in the history of Gravestown Memorial Hospital.
 * Simon's father owned the Birch Granite Company. Mr. Birch was a big believer in the rock and just about everything in their house was made from granite, including Mr. Birch.
 * When someone you love dies, you don't lose them all at once. You lose them in pieces over time, like how the mail stops coming. What I remember most to this day was my mother's scent and how I hated it when it began to disappear. First from her closets and drawers, then from her dresses that she had sewed herself and finally, from her bedsheets and pillowcases.
 * Time is a monster that cannot be reasoned with. It responds like a snail to our impatience...then it races like a gazelle when you can't catch your breath.
 * Winter left its icy chill behind and soon it was spring, then summer again. Grandmother passed away that June following a stroke. And because Hilde was always so content to just follow her lead...she had a stroke of her own and died in July. We buried them side by side. It's the way they would've wanted it. Ben Goodrich legally adopted me just two days before my thirteenth birthday. Not a day goes by that I don't thank God for bringing him into my life. With Simon's help, I had finally found my real father.

Others

 * Joe Wenteworth: Okay, you grabbed her boobs, and you pulled her into the manger. Big deal. It could've happened to anybody. Well, maybe not anybody.
 * Joe Wenteworth: [At Simon's bed in the hospital] Jesus, Simon, you look like shit.
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: Do your thing, Simon! Show 'em how it's done!
 * Miss Leavey: Help. Please. I'm gonna strangle him. I swear to God I'm gonna strangle that little granite mouse if it's the last thing I do.

Dialogue

 * Joe Wenteworth: Come on. We're late.
 * Simon Birch: No, you're late. I'm just riding with you.

 * Simon Birch: Not so fast. Slow down. I'm a miracle, you know.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Yeah, yeah.

 * Simon Birch: I was just thinking.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Yeah?
 * Simon Birch: Last year we played in the Squirt League, right?
 * Joe Wenteworth: Uh-huh.
 * Simon Birch: And this year we're in the Peewees.
 * Joe Wenteworth: So?
 * Simon Birch: Do they want us to play baseball or urinate? [silence] Anyway, I was just thinking.

 * Simon Birch: Your mother has the best breasts of all the mothers.
 * Joe Wenteworth: [trying to ignore] Yeah.
 * Simon Birch: And she smells the best too.
 * Joe Wenteworh: I know.
 * Simon Birch: She's so sexy that sometimes I forget she's someone's mother.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Okay. Okay.
 * Simon Birch: I was just being honest.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Well, what if I said the same thing about your mother?
 * Simon Birch: I'd have you committed.

 * [Making their way home from the quarry.]
 * Simon Birch: Your problem is that you have no faith.
 * Joe Wenteworth: I got faith. I just need proof to back it up.

 * [Joe and Simon arrive at their grandmother's home for dinner.]
 * Grandmother Wenteworth: That child is positively unnatural.
 * Hilde: Most peculiar.
 * Grandmother Wenteworth: And his voice, like--
 * Hilde: A mouse.
 * Grandmother Wenteworth: More than one. Like mice.
 * Hilde: Strangled mice.
 * Grandmother Wenteworth: [laughing] Strangled mice. Very good, Hilde.

 * Rev. Russell: I'd like to take a few minutes to discuss some of the upcoming activities on the church calendar.
 * Simon Birch: Here we go.
 * Ben Goodrich: [Quietly] What's wrong, Simon?
 * Simon Birch: Who knows what God thinks about current events?
 * Rev. Russell: Does someone have a question?
 * Ben Goodrich: Uh, no, sir - um, your honor, no,...Father, thank you. No, sir.
 * Rev. Russell: It's always nice to see new faces in the congregation. I'd like to invite them downstairs to join my wife and children, and myself for coffee and doughnuts downstairs after the service.
 * Simon Birch: What does coffee and doughnuts have to do with God?
 * Grandmother Wenteworth: [Quietly] Simon, you better be quiet!
 * Rev. Russell: Simon, is there something you'd like to share with us?
 * [Simon stands up on the pew, speaks more loudly]
 * Simon Birch: I said, "What does coffee and doughnuts have to do with God?"
 * Rev. Russell: They're merely refreshments so people can socialize and, uh, and discuss the upcoming activities.
 * Simon Birch: Who ever said the church needs a continental breakfast?
 * Rev. Russell: -Simon!
 * Simon Birch: I doubt that God is interested in our church activities.
 * Rev. Russell: -Simon!
 * Simon Birch: -If God has made the church bake sale a priority, then I'd say we're all in a lot of trouble.

 * Rev. Russell: Simon, what do you think you're doing sitting in a corner?
 * Simon Birch: Thinking about God.
 * Rev. Russell: In a corner?
 * Simon Birch: Faith is not in a floor plan.

 * Miss Leavey: Didn't your mother ever tell you to keep quiet during mass? What am I saying? Of course she didn't. Your parents don't go to church, do they, Simon? That's because they don't belong here, Simon. And neither do you. Speaking out of turn, disrupting the class, saying that God has a special plan for you? What kind of nonsense is that?
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: [Furiously bursts into the classroom, having heard the whole thing] And what kind of nonsense is this?!
 * Miss Leavey: Hello, Rebecca...
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: Come on, Simon.
 * Miss Leavey: No, wait, I was teaching him a lesson!
 * [Joe and Simon lean against the door to hear the argument between Rebecca and Leavey on the other side]
 * Rebecca: What lessons? Humiliation?
 * Joe Wenteworth: Oh, man! This is so boss!
 * Simon Birch: This is all my fault.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Don't take all the credit, she's my mom.
 * Miss Leavey: ...telling the other children that he's some kind of hero, that he's God's instrument!
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: And who's to say he isn't?
 * Joe Wenteworth: Who do you think would win in a fight?
 * Simon Birch: Tough say. Miss Leavey's meaner, but she's a smoker. Your mom can outlast her.
 * Miss Leavey: We can't have him talking that way. It frightens the other children.
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: Oh, I think the only one who's frightened here is you, Miss Leavey.
 * Miss Leavey: What? Why would I be afraid of little Simon Birch?
 * Rebecca Wenteworth: Because that child has more faith than you'll ever know.

 * [Simon and Joe hear a growl of a animal and hid by a wall]
 * Joe Wenteworth: What is it?
 * Simon Birch: [Upon seeing a dog] Ah! It's a horse.

 * Joe Wentworth: C'mon Si, all the girls think your cute.
 * Simon Birch: They think I'm cute like a baby turtle. Girls don't kiss baby turtles.

 * Miss Leavey: Okay, is everybody ready for dress rehearsal?
 * Simon Birch: No.
 * Miss Leavey: What now, Simon?
 * Simon Birch: [Points to the turtledove costumes, which look like winged mutant turtles] What are those?
 * Miss Leavey: They're turtledoves.
 * Simon Birch: They look like they're from outer space! The audience won't know what they are!
 * Miss Leavey: They're doves, Simon! The audience knows what a dove is!
 * Simon Birch: They're giant doves! They're as big as half a donkey. They're actually kind of frightening.

 * Simon Birch: Does God have a plan for us?
 * Rev. Russell: I like to think He does.
 * Simon Birch: -Me too. I think God made me the way I am for a reason.
 * Rev. Russell: Well, I'm glad that, um, that your faith, uh, helps you deal with your, um...you know, your, your condition.
 * Simon Birch: That's not what I mean. I think I'm God's instrument - that He's gonna use me to carry out His plan.

 * Rev. Russell: Congratulations, Simon. You've just made our first full-contact Christmas pageant. Well, do you have anything to say?
 * Simon Birch: Can I have my baseball cards back?
 * Rev. Russell: No, you may not! [Sighs, recomposes himself] Oh, Simon. What happened to tonight?
 * Simon Birch: I don't know. Sex makes people crazy.
 * Rev. Russell: Well, um... that maybe true. But that is still no answer. Simon, you spend more time downstairs alone in a corner than you do with the other children. You frighten them with your stories of being an instrument of God.
 * Simon Birch: They're not stories.
 * Rev. Russell: And, you interrupt my sermons, and you refuse to apologize. I'm out of ideas, Simon. I can't talk to your parents because, well, they don't attend church. And I can't talk to Rebecca, because, well...Simon, I think what I'm trying to say is, well, we all need a break from you. So, once this all simmers down, and Marjorie Albright's father decides to accept your apology, we'll discuss letting you back.
 * Simon Birch: What about the retreat?
 * Rev. Russell: Joe will go alone. And it's about time I had a talk with him too. Simon, I'm sorry. But, as the Bible says, "There is severe discipline for him who forsakes the way."
 * Simon Birch: "To impose a fine on a righteous man is not good; to flog noble men is wrong."
 * Rev. Russell: Proverbs 17:26, that's very good, Simon. But, perhaps you're familiar with this one as well: "Folly is bound in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him."
 * Simon Birch: "Good sense makes a man slow to anger..."
 * Rev. Russell: Simon...
 * Simon Birch: "...and it is his glory to overlook an offense."
 * Rev. Russell: Oh, Simon. What do you want me to do? What do you want me to say?
 * Simon Birch: I want to know that there's a reason for things. I used to be certain, but now I'm not so sure. I want you to tell me that God has a plan for me, a plan for all of us. Please.
 * [Finding it difficult to respond with a good answer]
 * Rev. Russell: Simon...I can't.

 * Mr. Birch: Simon's sick.
 * Joe Wenteworth: I know.
 * Mr. Birch: So was I when I heard what he did last night. The whole town's talkin' about it. What a little screw-up.
 * Joe Wenteworth: Hey, your son is not a screw-up. He's a hero.
 * Mr. Birch: What the hell are you talkin' about?
 * Joe Wenteworth: I said he's a hero. And you don't deserve him. I want you to know that.

 * [Last Lines]
 * Adult Joe Wenteworth: [Presses his hand against Simon's tombstone] Into paradise...may the angels lead you.
 * Simon Wenteworth: Dad. Dad! I'd love to stand around in the graveyard all day, but I got a game. Remember?
 * Adult Joe Wenteworth: Okay, Simon. I'm coming. You know, I was just thinking about that. Last year, you played in the squirt league, right?
 * Simon Wenteworth: Yeah.
 * Adult Joe Wenteworth: This year, it's Pee-Wee.
 * Simon Wenteworth: So?
 * Adult Joe Wenteworth: So what do they want you to do? Play soccer, or urinate? [Sees that Simon doesn't get it] Anyway, I was just thinking.

The Alchemist (novel)

The Alchemist (1988) is an allegorical novel by Paulo Coelho about a young Andalusian shepherd named Santiago who journeys to Egypt, after having a dream of finding treasure there.

Quotes

 * Intense, unexpected suffering passes more quickly than suffering that is apparently bearable; the latter goes on for years and, without our noticing, eats away at our soul, until, one day, we are no longer able to free ourselves from the bitterness and it stays with us for the rest of our lives.
 * (vii).

 * We are told from childhood onward that everything we want to do is impossible. We grow up with this idea, and as the years accumulate, so too do the layers of prejudice, fear and guilt.  There comes a time when our personal calling is so deeply buried in our soul as to be invisible. But it’s still there.
 * (vi).

 * If I became a monster today, and decided to kill them, one by one, they would become aware only after most of the flock had been slaughtered, thought the boy. They trust me, and they’ve forgotten how to rely on their own instincts, because I lead them to nourishment.
 * Source: Part 1

 * I couldn’t have found God in the seminary, he thought, as he looked at the sunrise.
 * (10).

 * It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.
 * (11).

 * I told you that your dream was a difficult one. It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them. And since I am not wise, I have had to learn other arts, such as the reading of palms.
 * Source: Part 1

 * So the boy decided that he would never again believe in dreams. He remembered that he had a number of things he had to take care of
 * (15).

 * Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.
 * (16)

 * [the King]: The book describes people’s inability to choose their own Personal Legends. And it ends up saying that everyone believes the world’s greatest lie. What’s the world’s greatest lie? the boy asked, completely surprised. It’s this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what’s happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That’s the world’s greatest lie.
 * (18).

 * People say strange things, the boy thought. Sometimes it’s better to be with the sheep, who don’t say anything. And better still to be alone with one’s books.
 * (19).

 * One’s Personal Legend is what you have always wanted to accomplish. Everyone, when they are young, knows what their Personal Legend is.  “At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible.  They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their Personal Legend….whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it’s because that desire originated in the soul of the universe.  It’s your mission on earth.
 * (21-22)

 * Here I am, between my flock and my treasure, the boy thought. He had to choose between something he had become accustomed to and something he wanted to have.
 * (27)

 * The boy felt jealous of the freedom of the wind, and saw that he could have the same freedom. There was nothing to hold him back except himself. The sheep, the merchant’s daughter, and the fields of Andalusia were only steps along the way to his Personal Legend.
 * (28).

 * [wise man to the boy] “Well there is only one piece of advice I can give you’ said the wisest of the wise men. ‘The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world, and never forget the drops of oil on the spoon.
 * (34).

 * He looked around at the empty plaza again, feeling less desperate than before. This wasn’t a strange place; it was a new one…he had already traveled farther than any shepherd he knew.  Oh, if they only knew how different things are just two hours by ship from where they are, he thought….As he mused about these things, he realized that he had to choose between thinking of himself as the poor victim of a thief and as an adventurer in quest of his treasure.  “I’m an adventurer, looking for treasure,” he said to himself.
 * (41).

 * He walked slowly through the market…The candy seller had a smile on his face: he was happy, aware of what his life was about, and ready to begin a day’s work. His smile reminded the boy of the old man – the mysterious old king he had met.  “This candy merchant isn’t making candy so that later he can travel or marry a shopkeeper’s daughter.  He’s doing it because it’s what he wants to do,” thought the boy.  He realized that he could do the same thing the old man had done – sense whether a person was near to or far from his Personal Legend.  Just by looking at them.  It’s easy, and yet I’ve never done it before, he thought
 * (43)

 * The old man continued, “You have been a real blessing to me. Today, I understand something I didn’t see before: every blessing ignored becomes a curse
 * (58)

 * The sheep had taught him something even more important: that there was a language in the world that everyone understood, a language the boy had used throughout the time he was trying to improve things at the shop. It was the language of enthusiasm, of things accomplished with love and purpose, and as part of a search for something believed in and desired”
 * (62).

 * He still had some doubts about the decision he had made. But he was able to understand one thing: making a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really driving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision.
 * (68).

 * I’ve crossed these sands many times, said one of the camel drivers one night. But the desert is so huge, and the horizon so distant, that they make a person feel small, and as if he should remain silent. The boy intuitively knew what he meant, even without having ever set foot in the desert before. Whenever he saw the sea, or a fire, he fell silent, impressed by their elemental force. I’ve learned things from the sheep, and I’ve learned things from crystal, he thought.  I can learn something from the desert, too.  It seems old and wise
 * (73).

 * The boy was beginning to understand that intuition is really a sudden immersion of the soul into the universal current of life, where the histories of all people are connected, and we are able to know everything, because it’s all written there.
 * (74).

 * No matter how many detours and adjustments it made, the caravan moved toward the same compass point. Once obstacles were overcome, it returned to its course, sighting on a star that indicated the location of the oasis.
 * (75).

 * We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it’s our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.
 * (76).

 * The boy noted that there was a sense of fear in the air, even though no one said anything. Once again he was experiencing the language without words…the universal language. The Englishman asked if they were in danger.  Once you get into the desert, there’s no going back,said the camel driver. and, when you can’t go back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward.  The rest is up to Allah, including the danger.
 * (77)

 * At that moment, it seemed to him that time stood still, and the Soul of the World surged within him. When he looked into her dark eyes, and saw that her lips were poised between a laugh and silence, he learned the most important part of the language that all the world spoke – the language that everyone on earth was capable of understanding in their heart.  It was love.  Something older than humanity, more ancient than the desert.  Something that exerted the same force whenever two pairs of eyes met, as had theirs here at the well.  She smiled, and that was certainly an omen – the omen he had been awaiting, without even knowing he was, for all his life.  The omen he had sought to find with his sheep and in his books, in the crystals and in the silence of the desert….
 * (92-93)

 * ….It was the pure Language of the World. It required no explanation, just as the universe needs none as it travels through endless time. What the boy felt at that moment was that he was in the presence of the only woman in his life, and that, with no need for words, she recognized the same thing. He was more certain of it than of anything in the world. He had been told by his parents and grandparents that he must fall in love and really know a person before becoming committed. But maybe people who felt that way had never learned the universal language. Because, when you know that language, it’s easy to understand that someone in the world awaits you, whether it’s in the middle of the desert or in some great city. And when two such people encounter each other, and their eyes meet, the past and the future become unimportant. There is only that moment, and the incredible certainly that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only. It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world.  Without such love, one’s dreams would have no meaning.  Maktub [which means “It Is Written” or destined, in Arabic], thought the boy.
 * (93).

 * It was my fear of failure that first kept me from attempting the Master Work. Now, I’m beginning what I could have started ten years ago. But I’m happy at least that I didn’t wait twenty years
 * (99).

 * The desert, with its endless monotony, put him to dreaming
 * (124).

 * There is only one way to learn,” the alchemist answered. “It’s through action. Everything you need to know you have learned through your journey.
 * (125).

 * His heart was never quiet, even when the boy and the alchemist had fallen into silence. “Why do we have to listen to our hearts?” the boy asked, when they had made camp that day. “Because, wherever your heart is, that is where you’ll find your treasure.”  “But my heart is agitated,” the boy said. “It has its dreams, it gets emotional, and it’s become passionate over a woman of the desert. It asks things of me, and it keeps me from sleeping many nights, when I’m thinking about her.” “Well, that’s good.  Your heart is alive. Keep listening to what it has to say.”….”My heart is a traitor,” the boy said to the alchemist when they had paused to rest the horses. “It doesn’t want me to go on.”  “That makes sense,” the alchemist answered.  “Naturally it’s afraid that, in pursuing your dream, you might lose everything you’ve won.” “Well, then, why should I listen to my heart?” “Because you will never again be able to keep it quiet.  Even if you pretend not to have heard what it tells you, it will always be there inside you, repeating to you what you’re thinking about life and about the world.  “You mean I should listen, even if it’s treasonous?” “Treason is a blow that comes unexpectedly. If you know your heart well, it will never be able to do that to you. Because you’ll know its dreams and wishes, and will know how to deal with them.  You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it’s better to listen to what it has to say. That way, you’ll never have to fear an unanticipated blow.
 * (128-129)

 * Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second’s encounter with God and with eternity.”  “Every second of the search is an encounter with God,” the boy told his heart. “When I have been truly searching for my treasure, every day has been luminous, because I’ve known that every hour was a part of the dream that I would find it. When I have been truly searching for my treasure, I’ve discovered things along the way that I never would have seen had I not had the courage to try things that seemed impossible for a shepherd to achieve.” So his heart was quiet for an entire afternoon.  That night, the boy slept deeply, and, when he awoke, his heart began to tell him things that came from the Soul of the World. It said that all people who are happy have God within them. And that happiness could be found in a grain of sand from the desert, as the alchemist had said. Because a grain of sand is a moment of creation, and the universe has taken millions of years to create it. “Everyone on earth has a treasure that awaits him,” his heart said. “We, people’s hearts, seldom say much about those treasures, because people no longer whant to go in search of them. We speak of them only to children. Later, we simply let life proceed, in its own direction, toward its own fate. But, unfortunately, very few follow the path laid out for them – the path to their Personal Legends, and to happiness. Most people see the world as a threatening place, and, because they do, the world turns out, indeed, to be a threatening place.  “So, we, their hearts, speak more and more softly. We never stop speaking out, but we begin to hope that our words won’t be heard: we don’t want people to suffer because they don’t follow their hearts.”  “why don’t people’s hearts tell them to continue to follow their dreams?” the boy asked the alchemist. “Because that’s what makes the heart suffer most, and hearts don’t like to suffer.” From then on, the boy understood his heart. He asked it, please, never stop speaking to him. He asked that, when he wandered far from his dreams, his heart press him and sound the alarm. The boy swore that, every time he heard the alarm, he would heed its message.  That night, he told all of this to the alchemist.  And the alchemist understood that the boy’s heart had returned to the Soul of the World.  “So what should I do now?” the boy asked.
 * (129-131).

 * When you possess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed.
 * (134).

 * Then you’ll die in the midst of trying to realize your Personal Legend. That’s a lot better than dying like millions of other people, who never even knew what their Personal Legends were.
 * (142).

 * This is why alchemy exists, the boy said. So that everyone will search for his treasure, find it, and then want to be better than he was in his former life. Lead will play its role until the world has no further need for lead; and then lead will have to turn itself to gold. That’s what alchemists do.  They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too. Well, why did you say that I don’t know about love? the sun asked the boy.  Because it’s not love to be static like the desert, nor is it love to roam the world like the wind. And it’s not love to see everything from a distance, like you do.  Love is the force that transforms and improves the Soul of the World.  When I first reached through to it, I thought the Soul of the World was perfect. But later, I could see that it was like other aspects of creation, and had its own passions and wars. It is we who nourish the Soul of the World, and the world we live in with be either better or worse, depending on whether we become better or worse. And that’s where the power of love comes in.  Because when we love, we always strive to become better than we are.

 * Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity.

 * Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.

Dov Charney

Dov Charney (born January 31, 1969 in Montreal (Quebec - Canada)) is the founder and CEO of American Apparel, a clothing manufacturer, wholesaler, and retailer which he started at age 20.

Quotes

 * I can’t wear any brand on my body - I just freak out. I mean, if I’m with a girl who’s wearing a Christian Dior necklace, I can’t even fuck her. And then there are those girls - like every girl I seem to find - who has one those Louis Vuitton bags. C’mon, it’s fucking false tribalism.
 * Spunt, Alexandra (2003). "Mr. No Logo" MontrealMirror.com (accessed August 7, 2006)

 * Look, I spent months in Mexico and the Dominican with subcontractors. I could tell you where all the best fucking bars are in the Dominican. What I’m trying to say is that it doesn’t work. My theory is, and I think I’m right - and I mean you guys had rioters in Montreal a few weeks ago [for the WTO] - is that going offshore is actually more expensive than these guys let on. What I’m going to prove, and I’m going to embarrass the entire fucking establishment, is that sweatshops are more expensive in the end than vertically integrated manufacturing in Canada or the U.S.
 * Spunt, Alexandra (2003). "Mr. No Logo" MontrealMirror.com (accessed August 7, 2006)

 * How do you think it is on a Jewish mother? It’s horrible for her to see her son facing these accusations.
 * Ellenson, Ruth (2005). "Unfashionable Crisis" The Jewish Journal (accessed August 8, 2006)

 * I made a mistake with these stores; I didn't do it myself and it's wrong. So I've had to let people go and there's nothing I hate more than having to get rid of kids. It breaks their hearts. But you know what? It affects sales. Should garment workers at my factory suffer because we fuck up the casting? What I'm looking for is style--that's not something you can teach a person. You have it or you don't. Let's say one girl has an acne problem but good style, while another one is beautiful but has no style. I'm picking acne!"
 * Ellenson, Ruth (2005). "Unfashionable Crisis" The Jewish Journal (accessed August 8, 2006)

 * If 60 Minutes will not do a story on me, it's their problem not mine. I'm changing the world; they're just reporting on it.
 * PR Week (2002)

About Dov Charney

 * Take one part brilliant entrepreneur, one part narcissist, add in a smattering of Attention Deficit Disorder and a dash of philanthropy and you get Dov Charney.

Talk:Psychonauts

 * Spoilers
 * Shouldn't we add a spoiler warning? These quotes are quite revealing. FranklyMyDear... 17:02, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

I've GOOGLE'd up a bunch of pages but have no conclusive answer on whether I can destroy all of her demons in the game. Obviously there is a link between Milla and the arsonist Milkman, but I want to wipe out her demons and cannot discover more anguish ambush spots. Can anyone help? -Alice
 * Game help
 * In Milla's secret room, I discovered her personal demons and later fought them in "The Milkmen Conspiracy" twice.
 * There is no link between the two of them besides the fact that they both have nightmares. Those things are nightmares, not Personal Demons. Personal Demons are the annoying little guys in Sasha's mind that explode when they get close. You can't destroy her nightmares, and you don't need to because, unlike Boyd, she has them under control. I hope that helped.

Lores of Halkyn
This article and its Wikipedia partner are about a work of fiction created by two school chums, CTwells (WP userpage) and Pavickers@btinternet.com. While I admire the creative efforts of such individuals, this work is currently so unnotable that even Google hasn't found its website yet (returning only the WP article and another search-engine's results). CTWells, in a response to another Wikipedian's complaint about falsely "protecting" the WP article (possibly just a misunderstanding), admits to Lores of Halkyn "not being a published work (more really a story that appears in a section of the local paper occasionally)". The WP article has been prod'd (i.e., nominated for speedy deletion after 5 days). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 03:15, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep now that previously-deleted content has been restored. —LrdChaos 15:21, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, but trim to avoid copyright violation, as it seems like it might be quoting too much (possibly everything) of what is said in the video game. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:53, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless trimmed to pithy subset of quotes. (It also needs source format cleanup.) A quick review of the relevant WP articles suggest that the only truly notable quote from this game series is its title, spoken dramatically ("Riiiiidge RACER!"). Looking over the existing article, I couldn't determine which if any of the other quotes stood out, and I don't have the familiarity with the subject that would help me make this call. If the involved editors don't show any interest in justifying this article's existence by editing it down to such a subset, I'd prefer to get rid of this one and wait for someone who will do the necessary work. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 18:50, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Looking at the page in detail, I don't know if it would be a copyvio as-is. It appears as though many of the quotes grouped under the "Quotes" section are from different games in the series, not all from the same game. I don't know how many quotes there are in each game, though, and if the list includes all of them (which, I admit, is quite possible, considering it's a racing game, which involves very few quotes) then it would be. —LrdChaos 18:57, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

hi shaun white u are the best -yea you are. I gotta say the second quote cracked me up. Nevertheless - most people know who he is since the olympics and more quotes by him or related to him would be nice to have on the page. user:tholex

Unsourced
Wikiquote no longer allows unsourced quotations, and they are in process of being removed from our pages (see Wikiquote:Limits on quotations); but if you can provide a reliable and precise source for any quote on this list please move it to.

 * This one summer I was hired by this rich dude to check out an island for him. It was nice and tropical, but it was full of dinosaurs. Then the power went out and all these dinosaurs broke out of their cages. They were eating and killing everyone, causing a whole bunch of trouble, so I took off. That guy still owes me some money.
 * (2005).
 * When asked what his worst summer job was.

you did cool tricks and i want you to put a video of trainig to be a good snowboarder.
 * My first set up was a 2x4 with plastic fins on the bottom. My parents would tow me behind a car in the middle of the street. It was sick until they towed me into a pothole and I fell into the sewers. But then rat people adopted me, so it was cool.

Basic Instinct 2

Basic Instinct 2 is a 2006 film in which novelist Catherine Tramell is once again in trouble with the law, and Scotland Yard appoints psychiatrist Dr. Michael Glass to evaluate her. Though, like Detective Nick Curran before him, Glass is entranced by Tramell and lured into a seductive game. It is the sequel to the 1992 film Basic Instinct.
 * Directed by Michael Caton Jones. Written by Leona Barish and Henry Bean.

Everything interesting begins in the mind. Taglines

Catherine Tramell

 * Even Oedipus didn't see his mother coming.

 * [to Glass] You know what I like about you? You enjoy being in control. Like me.

 * When you think about fucking me, and I know you do, how do you picture it... doctor?

 * You know how some guys are into blondes, and some guys are into killers?

 * I might be manipulating you to create risk for myself.

 * If you follow inter-subjectivity to its natural end, aren't you asking who's the patient and who's the doctor?

 * Nick used to say: "Death is always there. It's the only thing that's real." Except maybe sex sometimes.

Dr. Michael Glass

 * All addiction is progressive. The addict always needs to take greater risks.

Milena Gardosh

 * The beauty about antisocial behavior is that it takes you away from other people, however briefly.

Other

 * Jakob Gerst: So we've been considering those who wish to control others through their insecurity and their narcissism. To study Nietzsche psychobiographically may seem naive. Wasn't it Nietzsche's work itself, which through deconstructive and post-structuralist readings induced the death of psychobiography?

Dialogue

 * Roy Washburn: What were you doing at 100 miles per hour?
 * Catherine Tramell: He was making me cum. And it was 110. We must've hit a pothole.
 * Roy Washburn: Kevin Franks died. You don't seem very worried.
 * Catherine Tramell: I'm devastated... I may never cum again.

 * Dr. Michael Glass: I'm not the one on trial for murder.
 * Catherine Tramell: Not yet.

Taglines

 * Everything interesting begins in the mind.

Main cast

 * Sharon Stone - Catherine Tramell
 * David Morrissey - Dr. Michael Glass
 * Charlotte Rampling - Milena Gardosh

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Mr.bungle. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mr.bungle~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Moayad. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Moayad~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

User:Salmankh~enwikiquote

"Honesty is prescribed on the face of one, that's what makes us trust each other. If everyone starts using lawyers, oaths, consignee, receipts, IDs and DNAs to verify each others promises, words, acts and behaviour then this world would become miserable; blood will become as cold as ice, words will become as sharp as a knife and working with each other will become as tough as a fight. If there's anything that's keeping this world away from complete imperfection, its the trust, truth, belief, certainity and faith in each other."

Randy Blythe

David Randall Blythe (born February 21, 1971) is the lead singer for the American post-thrash metal band Lamb of God.

Making of Sacrament DVD

 * I'm not a musician; I'm a screamer.

 * I sit at home by myself with my headphones in Randy world, and thats it.
 * During the musical writing process.

 * They bend to each other, you know, its not like they like fuckin', beat each other over the head, its like 'oh, hear I come; wenenenenenen or chachachachacha' you know, they bend to each other, and they compromise, you know. And it makes for a good guitar relationship I suppose, you know. So Willie brings in the riff, and hes like 'jejejejeje', and Mark is like 'Oh, psh, wenenenenenen', and like, and you can see it happen dude, physically see it happen, like, they're melding, like Vulcans or something, like 'mind melding', I don't know, you know. I've learned a lot about music from watching those guys, by how different they are, and how they complement each other.
 * On the writing process of Mark Morton and Wille Adler, the guitarists of Lamb of God.

Live

 * I want you to pretend this is fucking Braveheart or some shit.
 * Hellfest 2003

Lyrics

 * Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever can not take care of themself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, "If I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven." Such is the rule of honor.
 * Opening to 'Omerta', from the album Ashes Of The Wake

 * If we keep doing what we're doing, we're going to keep getting what we're getting.

 * Most people struggle with life balance simply because they haven't paid the price to decide what is really important to them.

 * There are three constants in life…change, choice and principles.

 * We are not animals. We are not a product of what has happened to us in our past. We have the power of choice.

 * Merge, now that quotes have been added, with Stephen Covey - InvisibleSun 03:13, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge with Covey, per Invisible Sun. As I've mentioned before, I'm against book articles except when the book is so famous that it needs a separate article (e.g., The Bible). With book articles, editors have a tendency to assume no further source information need be provided, which requires verifiers to read the entire work to find the quotes cited. (Proper sourcing should include page numbers and ISBNs.) Besides, they needlessly invite copyright infringement by practically begging to be expanded beyond a select set of quotes. Although there are two co-authors cited, their names are so de-emphasized on the cover that I think a note under the heading for this book's quotes in the Covey article would be sufficient. (I do note that the co-authors, A. Roger Merrill and Rebecca Merrill, have (only) one other book credit in the Library of Congress: Life Matters: Creating a Dynamic Balance of Work, Family, Time, and Money (2003). But given that First Things First was published in 1994, they seem to have been extremely junior partners at the time.) ~ Jeff Q (talk) 03:21, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Paul Tsongas

Paul Efthemios Tsongas (14 February 1941 – 18 January 1997) was an American politician. He represented Massachusetts in both houses of the United States Congress, holding office from 1975 to 1985. He won eight states as a candidate in the 1992 Democratic presidential primaries, losing the nomination to Bill Clinton.

Quotes

 * The cold war is over; Japan won.
 * As quoted in "The 1992 Campaign : Campaign Memo; Voters Want Candidates To Take a Reality Check" by Maureen Dowd in The New York Times (17 February 1992)

 * You cannot be pro-jobs and anti-business at the same time. You cannot love employment and hate employers.
 * 1992 Democratic National Convention.

 * Everything we hope to do, depends on an expanding economic pie. And only a vibrant, competitive, thriving private sector can create that. Government is a necessary partner, but it is the junior partner. Only the private sector can produce the revenues for the social programs that we Democrats care so much about. The financing of those programs through ever more public debt violates our generation responsibility.
 * ibid.

These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Scara. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Scara~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:35, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 05:57, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
