Here are some from my school agenda :

Steven Wright : "On the other hand, I have five fingers", "Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I thyink I've forgotten this before" , "Why is the alphabet in that order? Is it because of that song?"

Will Rogers : "If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging"


And a great one by Abraham Lincoln : "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt"

Random people : "Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it" , "Just because I have a short attention span doesn't mean I"

"The only dependable thing about the future is uncertainty."

"To be forgotten is worse than death."

I think that's from Rousseau's Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, though I'm not sure. It certainly sounds like something Rousseau would say at least.
