The world's greatest quote

This is something simple, for all of us to do. Basically, i want everyone to post one or two of their favorite quotes. It can be from anything. Then, We will pick 5 of the best and have them have a faceoff in a poll to see who is the winner.

Format: "(Quote)" -(Author)

Let me start ^^:

"I see no god up here" -Yuri Gagarin (He was an astronaut, so when he got into space, he said that frase)

Pour les francais : notre cher president :

" Tous peuvent dire non, personne peut dire oui. Celui qui a le plus petit pouvoir peut empecher de faire une petite chose, mais celui qui a le plus grand pouvoir ne peut pas permettre de faire une petite chose, le pouvoir de dire non, en faite .... , existe, et pour pouvoir dire oui non, parce que chaque pouvoir equilibre l'autre, dans un mouvement de paralysie quasi generale. "

I know i had it in this joke book and i coul'dnt remember what it was xD

I found it in a book called "the ultimate insult". Its jam packed full of quotations from famous celebrites from all walks of life. Some of the quotes are as old as the 1800's and some are late 1990's (i think, i havent read it for ages). Its a great read.

They cover topic such as sport, relgion, inflammatory, relationships, countries ect ect.

That Winston Churchill quote is one of the best remembered and appreciated of all time, so im not surpised that im not the only one who though of it.

The greatest quote of ALL time is in my sig:

With great power, comes great responsibility.

And I am sad to say a lot of people misunderstand the meaning of this quote. No one realizes how true it is, and how powerful these words are. Sad really. :/
