Zuerst die Überlegung, wo das Ding hier hingehört. Habe mich dann für Lounge entschieden, da es nicht direkt etwas mit aktuellen Medienthemen zu tun hat.

Sinn des Threads:
Wie die meisten wohl mitbekommen haben, bin ich ein absoluter Zitat und auch Songtextfreak. Ich sammel nahezu alles, was auch nur annähernd in die Richtung geht.
Also auf und postet eure Lieblingszitate, Songtexte, Gedichte oder was weiß ich wie geartete Texte. Diese können witzig sein oder auch zum Nachdenken anregen.

Es wäre nett, wenn ihr auch angeben würdet, woher ihr die jeweiligen Texte habt.


Direkt ein paar zu Beginn:

Champagne for my real friends, and real pain for my sham friends.
(Monty Brogan (Edward Norton) in 25th Hour)

Frank Slaughtery: You kissed your student? What are you, R Kelly?

Frank Slaughtery: I’m Irish, I don’t get drunk! (beide ebenfalls 25th Hour)

"The Humans, I think, knew they were doomed. But where another race would surrender to despair, the Humans fought back with even greater strength. They made the Minbari fight for every inch of space. In my life, I have never seen anything like it. They would weep. They would pray. They would say goodbye to their loved ones and then throw themselves without fear or hesitation at the very face of death itself. Never surrendering. No one who saw them fighting against the inevitable, could help but be moved to tears by their courage, their stubborn nobility. When they ran out of ships, they used guns. When they ran out of guns, they used knives and sticks and bare hands. They were magnificent! I only hope, when it is my time, that I may die with half as much dignity as I saw in their eyes at the end. They did this for two years. They never ran out of courage. But in the end, they ran out of time."(Babylon 5 - In the Beginning)

Hab moch ein paar:

If you lie all the time, no-one is going to believe you even when you're telling the truth.
- Are you sure that is the point, Doctor?
- Of course; what else would it be?
- Never tell the same lie twice.
Bashir and Garak about the story about the boy who cried 'Wolf!', in DS9 "Improbable Cause."

The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of imagination.
Garak, in DS9 "Improbable Cause",

You'd shoot a man in the back?!
- It's the safest way, isn't it?
Odo and Garak, in DS9 "A Call to Arms"

"Because lying is a skill like any other, and if you want to maintain a level of excellence you have to practice constantly." -- Garak in DS9 "In Purgatory's Shadow"

Schon erstaunlich wie sich der Körper des Menschen sich gegen sich selbst wenden kann. Der gleiche Prozess, der ein Kind im Mutterleib heranwachsen lässt, der unsere Wunden heilt, frisst uns bei lebendigen Leibe auf. Und niemand wird verschont. Kleine Kinder. Väter mit Kindern. Krebs. Hirnkrebs. Leberkrebs. Brustkrebs. Es ist immer das Gleiche. Gnadenlos frisst er uns auf, zerstört uns. Genau wie die Zeit. (Dr. Romano)

Patientin: "Ich habe einen eingewachsenen Zehennagel!"
Dr. Green: "Ich habe einen Gehirntumor. Inoperabel. Ich habe gewonnen."
(beide Emergency Room)

"Hurt" rult, wobei ich nur die Cash Version kenne. Sehr emotinal!

@Nef:
Zumindest "Hasta la vista" stammt von T2.

Ein paar Lyrics, wenn auch teilweise nur in Ausschnitten:


Nothing's black and white
There's never one way to do it right
There's no simple answers
Nothing's absolute, there's never one truth
(Sick of it All - Busting Heads)


Go to work, go to school
Get an education, so you won´t be a fool
Be a doctor, PHD, all that shit, that's not for me

All my life people tell what to say
This is my life live it my own way
(SoiA - My Life)


SoiA - The Shield

Lowered my shield, lowered - defenses
happier now feeling - all senses
heighten my soul and my - awereness
isn't it great being - defendeless
a long time ago i was - protected
the choise was mine and i - selected
the joy and the pain were - connected
lowered my shield, now i'm not protected

I never used to let it down
never used to let it down
i never used to let it down
never used to let it
there's something i've got to see
i never used to let it down
never used to let it down
i never used to let it down
never used to let it
i've got to see what's realy inside of me

Now i understand that emotion
now i undrstand why ther's commotion
all this time without - a notion
all this time without - devotion
why waste time being - suspicious
come taste life it's - delicious
expose yourself to the - malicious
expose yourself, they're - so vicious

All these years / will this shield disappear
and will i stand / a stronger man / no shield in hand
i'll have to overcome the pain the best that i can


SoiA - We stand Alone

Here it is, once again,
tales of betrayal by the ones we call our friends
took us long to get where we are
now we're told what we've done is wrong

We all started with something to say
was it our different views or jealousy in the way
now you're the ones setting the rules
just like the establishment you're so against
lay down your laws, say what you will
tell me i'm wrong and i'll defy you

Who are you to make up rules and put us down ?
with our friends, we'll stay to the end
and if it comes down to it, we'll stand alone
Here it is once again, tales of conformity
by the ones who would be king
we never set out to impress anyone
it's just an outlet, our chance to be heard
at first you said we hated to much
now you say we just can't hate enough
now you're screaming that we've changed
we've grown up but our beliefs are still the same
it's still an outlet for anger and strife
but one more thing, it's also our life

(We) we don't need any help (stand alone)
our beliefs are strong enough to (stand alone)
our desire's burning deep, in our hearts
it's in ourheads, it's in our souls
(we) we defy your fucking lies (stand alone)
you question our beliefs (stand alone)
our desire's burning deep, in our hearts
it's in our heads, it's in our souls (stand alone)

We stand alone

People from the past, they dont want to hear us
the ones they call our peers, they just fear us
ain't handin' no lies but reality comes off as cold
what you hear from me comes from deep down inside us
this just ain't a song of defiance, i'm just tellin' you how it goes

We stand alone



SoiA - Just Look Around

The question they keep asking me
how can one so young be so bitter and angry
well, the answer is plain to see
maybe if they wern't so blind they'd see what i see
i see the homeless livin' out on the street
on every corner they're asking for money
i try to help them whenever i can
but sometimes i can't afford to help myself
i see diseases and modern plagues of our times
the greed of our leaders has made them blind
to our problems
they spend millions overseas,
people right here are fightin' wars everyday

I see the whites that hate the blacks
blacks against the jews, race against religion
and the're all too blind to see

When we fight each other it puts all of them at ease
it keeps us so busy, so they can do what they please
election time comes and they're out for votes
that's when you see and hear from them the most
this is what they're calling a democracy
that's just another word for hypocrisy
we keep fallin' for the bait
when we realize, it's always too late

I see the whites that hate the blacks
blacks that hate the jews, brother against brother
and they're all to blind to see

As the rich get richer, the poor goin' hungry
i've seen the toll it takes on the workingman's family
education system that's obsolete
can't hold a kid's interest or keep 'em off the street
see a father's fear, hear a mother's cry
what kind of a nation lets their children die
government's corrupt and full of red tape
then you're gonna ask me why i hate

Why don't you open up your eyes so you can see
open up your ears so you can hear
take a look around and you will find
take a look around and you will find out why


We Want the Truth

Abused used the way we felt
Dirt cheap the way you dealt
Talk talk nothing's said
Speeches promises don't mean a thing
Empty words from your mouth
Token actions gave you clout
Time's now to end your luck
No more talks cause we don't give a fuck

About your alibis, about your lies
and all your excuses
Think we can't handle it
Think we would cave in, why don't you try it
No more stories, no more double talk
and no more cover ups, we just want the truth!

Abused used the way we felt
Dirt cheap the way you dealt
Talk talk nothing's said
Speeches promises don't mean a thing
Empty words from your mouth
No one cares what it's about
In the past give us proof
No more talks, we just want the truth!

And what about the youth
Never told the truth
Never told what it's all about
It's all about the wealth
There's no one there to help
and everyone's looking out for themselves
Put our faith in you and our trust too
Have you no conscience
We know the story, it's money and glory
Don't care who you step on
No more speeches, no time for apologies
We heard it all before
All of your alibis, all about your lies
and all your excuses
Think we can't handle it
Think we would cave in, think we can't take it
No more stories, no more double talk
No more cover ups, we just want the truth!

Es fehlen noch O-Ren und die Braut. Also hier ein paar aus Kill Bill:

O-Ren Ishii: As your leader, I encourage you from time to time, and always in a respectful manner, to question my logic. If you're unconvinced that a particular plan of action I've decided is the wisest, tell me so, but allow me to convince you and I promise you right here and now, no subject will ever be taboo. Except, of course, the subject that was just under discussion. The price you pay for bringing up either my Chinese or American heritage as a negative is - I collect your fucking head. Just like this fucker here. Now, if any of you sons of bitches got anything else to say, now's the fucking time!

The Bride: As I said before, I've allowed you to keep your wicked life for two reasons. And the second reason is so you can tell him in person everything that happened here tonight. I want him to witness the extent of my mercy by witnessing your deformed body. I want you to tell him all the information you just told me. I want him to know what I know. I want him to know I want him to know. And I want them all to know they'll all soon be as dead as O-Ren.
