Depends on how much attachment you place on your limbs.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

The trick is in not holding on to the ham for too long, being outside of the tiger enclosure and not letting the zoo staff see you.

On a more serious note, the one sentence even I'm surprised I came up with is this:
Quote:I'm a realist, if you hate me for being real, you hate reality not me.
Now, I don't know if it's technically accurate with realist but I sounded like a serious badass when I said that, damn.

Me, a few times in my life Wrote:The weak deny their humanity. The strong embrace it.
I'm not really a well of quotable wisdom, but I have on occasion been known to make a good point.

Yeah... I don't know about that. Those you thought you loved, but it turned out you didn't really, you just wanted to get laid - they can often hurt you quite severely too. Especially if you're in the same social circles and ESPECIALLY if you let them film stuff...

I also Wrote:The trouble with the particularly zealous preacher is that they've spent so much time and effort being a pious little mouthpiece for their god, they've forgotten how to be human.
or words to similar effect.

Can I just use a post, where - instead of "inventing" anything - I describe, say, Socratic Ignorance, but in a convoluted and pretentious way? You know - like a cross between teenage girl's poetry and first year philosophy student's chat-up line?
Oh, I can? Sweet...
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.
