    Of course, as long as you like them and want to share them.

    Thank you for reminding me that I made this thread, @mir , otherwise I would have forgotten about today's quote.

    It will be a quote from a soccer player called Rolandinho. I like the way he was dominating, when he was still active:

    "My family is everything. I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them."

    Edit: Thanks for my 7,500th like. >:3

    I've always liked this quote:

    "TL Notes:

    Here's your crack boys. Remember to say grace. "

    edit:
    Found another one.
    From Youtube comments:

    Comment: "The biggest lie they tell you is that you need luck for success."

    Response: "Yeah, coming from probably the luckiest fuck ever, you must truly believe that. Technically, you do not “need” it. But it sure as fuck changes the odds by orders of magnitude! So for practical reality, which doesn’t give a shit about your technicalities, you DO need it!"

    The Translator said this at the start of a newly translated chapter. I don't remember where exactly I got it from.
    The TL told the readers "Here's your latest dose of drugs" (crack = cocaine)
    And 'saying grace' refers to saying some words of thanks before a meal, and if people forget to say grace, its because they are so eager to start eating they forget their basic manners.
    (It's not like everyone says grace in reality though, it was just put there to poke fun at the readers for being like crazy addicts for the novel)

    @Nargol rectify, rectus, lewd. I am glad somebody posted some funny quotes

    Today's quotes are general quotes, because I am on a chuuni tactician trip. I found three. Not all of them are about the military though. They are rather general like generic or public.

    quote from a comment about browser history:
    "I like to look up the definitions of common words to make sure I'm using them absolutely correctly and when I saw them all in a row, I understood that the people spying on me must think I'm an idiot."

    lol thanks
    I edited two of them out since I have very few saved, and if people 'like' them, I'd wonder which of the three they liked, so I'll make other posts for them.

    my favourite quote desu ~
    ....
    All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
    by J.R.R. Tolkien ~
