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)

There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.
