Senior Quotes

[RaRa]

Ok, so every senior gets one page in the yearbook devoted to them. Along with your age, where your born, blah blah blah, you get to pick 3 qoutes. These can be anything. It can be from a famous writer, a politician, or heck, you can even come up with your own.

I'm having trouble finding ones that I really like, and I was hoping all you awesome people on EC could help me.

I actually want qoutes that hint to my sexuality without screaming "I'm gay!" Something meaningful that will leave a mark in that persons head. I've had trouble finding something like that.

Thanks a bunch!

Meh. I like a lot of the ones Holly posted. Has nothing to do with sexuality really: but for mine I went with a good old Calvin and Hobbes one: "When life gives you lemons, I say throw them back and add some lemons of your own."

[Nodnarb]

We have to have our senior quotes in by next week, and I had no idea what I wanted to do...but, I really like some of Holly's. I may just go with one of them

“If a society takes it upon itself to prescribe and proscribe certain streams of belief — to prohibit certain less-favored strains of conscience — it may be the non-believer who is among the first to be condemned. A coercive monopoly of belief threatens everyone, whether we are talking about those who search the philosophies of men or follow the words of God.” - Mitt Romney

^ I love that quote
