If you hear a nice little quote or mantra, post it here, be it inspirational Ghandi stuff or witty Oscar Wilde stuff or a Jedi (or Sith, for that matter) quote. Embarrassingly, I can't actually think of one right now... _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn. You shall learn that history is an intricate weaving of many events.

What's with all the hate towards poor Life for trying to be nice to his fellow forum goers? *gets handed note, reads* Oh you meant a different one, my bad Move along, move along On a more serious note I hate to break it to you but Mara beat you guys to the punch with a thread for quotes of the day: http://www.eucantina.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=827 Not as nifty a title I'll grant but I'm not sure how this thread will be different from Mara's. I'm going to give you guys a chance to make a case for keeping both open though. _________________

Before yelling at that guy from the call centre, just think; "There's always a bigger fish". It could be used in a number of contexts, if you're being mugged, bear in mind the guy about to punch you could be standing in front of a person with a knife. Before lashing out at someone who lost something important of yours, just think "There is no emotion; there is peace". Is that good enough? We need an emoticon that shows "phew" or exasperation, like one wiping their forehead... I'll put it in the suggestions thread. Let's let it run its course, see how similar they get. _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn. You shall learn that history is an intricate weaving of many events.

I'll leave it open so long as in the process of having fun parodying quotes or inventing variations the thread doesn't devolve into a Jedi Master Seinfeld quote of the day. As for lemons I believe Get Fuzzy had a variation of something to the effect of: "when life gives you lemons chuck 'em at a jerk's head" _________________

What's with all the hate towards poor Life for trying to be nice to his fellow forum goers? *gets handed note, reads* Oh you meant a different one, my bad Move along, move along I know! I thought it was their payback for enquiring about the flap, but luckily it was all a misunderstanding. Where's a 'phew' smilie when you need one ... Would this quote be in keeping with this thread: 'The original point and click interface was a Smith & Wesson.'? Or what about 'If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you ...'? _________________ I am a Star Wars fan. That doesn't mean that I hate or love Jar Jar.
