well, here's a few:
"i'm at the crossroads, waiting for a sign.
My life is standing still, but I'm still alive"- Oasis
"this shaking keeps me steady. I should know"- THeodore Roethke.
"Well, that clears that up. It would have been really annoying if she hadn't explained herself properly". -technically J.K. Rowling, but it was Ron in the Harry Potter books after hermione murmered a few incomprehensible words before dashing off to the library.
"silence is golden and duct tape is silver"-my friend
"Caution: Do Not Turn Upside Down"- on the bottom of Nanna's Tiramisu Dessert.

"Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, it's what you are expected to give -- which is everything."
"We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence, and its only end."
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched ... but are felt in the heart.
Do you love me because I'm beautiful,
or am I am beautiful because you love me?
You see things; and you say, "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?"
Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?
Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.

The only thing that matters is the ending. It's the most important part of the story. And this one, is very good. This one is perfect.

Never take someone for granted. Hold every person close to your heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you've lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones.**

I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.

i have 3
1. I ran up the door, closed the stairs, said my pajamas, put on my prayers, turned off the bed and jumped in the light all because you kissed me goodnight.
2.One day you’ll think of me as I thought of you, one day you’ll cry for me as I cried for you, one day you’ll love me as I loved you, & one day you’ll want me & I won’t want you
3. i believe in angels the kind that heaven sends. im surrounded by angels i call them best friends.

" And the lord said, LET THERE BE MARINES, and the gates of hell opened."
It is tattooed on my fathers back, he was a marine for about 12 years or more. I have no idea were he got it from, but I love it.
