I thought there might have been a thread for this but I couldn't find any.

My favorite quotes are probably "It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum, I'm all out of gum" (Duke Nukem) and "This is gonna be a real fine piece of piss, you bloody fruit shop owners" (Mr. Mundy)

Weird, I specifically searched up favorite quotes and nothing came up for HTLB.

The thread hasn’t been touched in 2.5 years, so maybe that’s why. I only knew it was there because I remember posting on it.

There was also this one, so feel free to read through these too. There are some nice selections in there.

@asikuurt
It may not be as solemn as your pick, but I have referenced his “Screw you and everything you stand for” quote in my less proud boss battle moments.

"There's nothing fundamentally wrong with people. Given a story to enact that puts them in accord with the world, they will live in accord with the world. But given a story to enact that puts them at odds with the world, as yours does, they will live at odds with the world. Given a story to enact in which they are the lords of the world, they will act like lords of the world. And, given a story to enact in which the world is a foe to be conquered, they will conquer it like a foe, and one day, inevitably, their foe will lie bleeding to death at their feet, as the world is now."

- Daniel Quinn, Ishmael: An Adventure of the Mind and Spirit

"No one knows who will live in this cage in the future, or whether at the end of this tremendous development entirely new prophets will arise, or there will be a great rebirth of old ideas and ideals, or, if neither, mechanized petrification, embellished with a sort of convulsive self-importance. For the last stage of this cultural development, it might well be truly said: 'Specialists without spirit, sensualists without heart; this nullity imagines that it has attained a level of civilization never before achieved.'"

- Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism

"The child does not internalize the world of his significant others as one of many possible worlds. He internalizes it as the world, the only existent and only conceivable world [...] Primary socialization thus accomplishes what (in hindsight, of course) may be seen as the most important confidence trick that society plays on the individual--to make appear as necessity what is in fact a bundle of contingencies, and thus to make meaningful the accident of his birth."

- Peter Berger & Thomas Luckmann, The Social Construction of Reality
