Dear all,
I know everyone have their own favorite quotation. It can comes from a book that you've read, a movie that you've seen. Or you heard from your teacher, your friends, your parents.
I think i have two, one is " To be or not to be, that is a question", it's from Shakespeare. And i've seen a movie name "Sparta 300 warrior", his wife said to the king "Come back with your shield or on it!" I just love this quotation, i used this quotation to encourage myself when i felt down.
What's yours? Please share with us !

And what a wonderful mind it is you live in, to be sure. I particularly enjoyed numbers 3 and 9, a blueprint for living if ever I saw one. Just as long as you live it in some continent a long way away from me, please.

You don't have to be a conservative to be stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives (J. S. Mill).
As for your Hollywood quote, that was what Roman matrons used to tell their sons when they went off to fight for the Roman Empire. Trust the movie people to steal it.

Hi Sudhajosyula, a friend in need is a frined indeed. I like this quotation too. I think it's really hard to find a real good frined in your life. But once you found it, the friendship will last for a lifetime. Have a nice day too!

my favorite quotation would have to be this. life is not measured by the breaths we take but by the moments that take our breathe away. this is so true
