Sounds weird and I don't know, and I can't even google for it. Does anybody know? If not, please give another quote (less recently maybe). lol

"A thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability, and beauty of the biotic community. It is wrong when it tends otherwise."

Aldo Leopold, I believe. Put this in your pipes and smoke it:
It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

If I'm not much mistaken, that would be by Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets? The movie quote is different- "It is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices." I finished that one for the 6th time in three days last night.
This one's easy, but I love it.
"Side? I am nobody’s side, because nobody’s on my side, little orc. Nobody cares for the woods anymore."

Aleister Crowley of course.
How is that:
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.

Mahatma Ghandi.
How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads, to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.

Bram Stokers - lol your predictible.  Try this one: If an elderly but distinguished scientist says that something is possible he is almost certainly right, but if he says that it is impossible he is very probably wrong. |

LOL, that's Arthur C. Clarke...*tries to think of a really hard one*...
Here we go, try this one:
And death, as the sole means of reviving love for herself in his heart, of punishing him, and of gaining the victory in that contest which an evil spirit in her heart was waging against him, presented itself clearly and vividly to her .

Hehehe, Tolstoy. Anna Karenina, if I am right. Good stuff, a little heavy to read, but nice.
Try this one:
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
