Well, this is my final year of high school. Each year, graduating students at my school are asked to submit a quote to our yearbook, ranging from inspirational to nonsensical.

So, I think I'll ask the same of this board. Post your senior quotes. :)

Not a senior? Post what you'd want to use as your senior quote. Already graduated? Same deal.

Mine: "I guard my treasures: my thought, my will, my freedom. And the greatest of these is freedom."
-Ayn Rand

Mine would have been something deep, yet crazy. I'm like that.

"Everyone is crazy, to a certain extent. The truly insane ones are those that have deluded themselves otherwise." - Anthony McWilliams (that's me :p

Or....

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity. And I'm not sure about the universe." -- Albert Einstein

I have a few quotes that come quickly to mind, but one of them that describes how I feel at the end of the year is

"I had the taste of blood and chocolate in my mouth, one as hateful as the other."

This is from the movie adaptation of Blood and Chocolate, by Annette Curtis Klouse (And, the book was much better than the movie, but even then was just good enough to finish. I mean, the movie didn't even see theaters, the setting was totally different, characters were too old, characters were missing, characters were added, etc. I turned it off as soon as I saw the word 'Romania'...and then I watched the whole bloody thing to see how bad it was.)
*slaps self* Anyway.

A quote that I (Hope) I came up with myself is, "It's been a long, short, silly, serious, fun, terrifying, tame, feral, wild ride. Told ya I didn't need a seatbelt!" I've never heard anyone say that before, so I'm pretty sure I came up with it myself.

Meh, you're right. The book was way better than the movie.

I can't think of a quote, but the first thing that came to mind was: "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king." - Max Payne/Desiderius Erasmus

[Edit] Got another one. "You have to know how to accept rejection and reject acceptance." - Ray Bradbury, giving advice to writers.

"Be like a duck, calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath" - Michael Caine

"Those who give up a little liberty for a little security deserve neither and will lose both" - Benjamin Franklin

I am only a sophmore but Im quoted in the year book xD mine is "Love is like a flower, nurturer it and it will grow."-*insert my name here* :P

I can't remember a lot of the quotes used in my class, but here are a few:

[insert senior quite here]

As you approach a 4.0, study time approaches infinity.

He who endures, conquers.

A friend is someone who is there for you when you need them. A great friend is someone you can call to bail you out of jail and a best friend is someone who is sitting in jail with you.

How many times do you have to fall off the horse before you decide to shoot it and go home.

It's better to keep you mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

It's been a good run, let's keep 'er going. Quando omni flunkus moritati* and keep your stick on the ice.

I'm a Red Green Fan, shut up :lol:

*When all else fails, play dead.

"vos homo estis miserandi" -I think that means "you humans are pathetic" in latin. I'm first year latin, so it probably has horrid grammar.

Bah, lucky people. There were so many people at my high school that we didn't get senior quotes, or anything like that. :(

hey, i'm still a freshman, so i don't know how everything will turn out.

we never really did them at our school either... they must of thought we were uneducated or something I dunno.

"Life's a journey. Shame about the destination."

A decent quote from the Ciaphas Cain novels, goes pretty well. Would do the one on Paranoia (Paranoia is a very comforting state of mind. If you think they're out to get you, it means you think you matter) or something like "Ave Imperator / Ave Dominus Nox" but those would just piss my parents off.

EDIT:
[Froths] Neco haereticum clementia! Caedo trunco exuro![/Twitch Froth]
((Likely has worse grammar than Arachnion's statement))
