"'To the complaint, 'There are no people in these photographs,' I respond, 'There are always two people: the photographer and the viewer.' - Ansel Adams
"Do what you love. Love what you do. Take less. Give more. Never quit. Never follow. Be passionate. Be bold. Be honest. Respect people. Respect the environment. Always bring out the best in your family and friends. Change is the only constant. Fear is an illusion. Attitude is everything." - Sonnie Trotter
"All art is a vision penetrating the illusions of reality, and photography is one form of this vision and revelation." - Ansel Adams
"What the human race is suffering from is mass hypnosis. We are being hypnotized by people like this: newsreaders, politicians, teachers, lecturers. We are in a country and in a world that is being run by unbelievably sick people. The chasm between what we're told is going on and what is really going on is absolutely enormous. - The greatest hypnotist on the planet Earth is an oblong box in the corner in the room. It is constantly telling us what to believe is real." - David Icke
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain
"You know: I'm a fan of photosynthesis as much as the next guy, but if God merely wanted us to smell the flowers, he wouldn't have invented a 3GHz microprocessor and a 3D graphics board."
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." - Einstein
"Many a man fails to become a thinker for the sole reason that his memory is too good" - Nietzsche
"Landscape photography is the supreme test of the photographer - and often the supreme disappointment"
"You don't take a photograph, you make it. " - Ansel Adams
"Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.
The hottest love has the coldest end." - Socrates
"If I had but an hour of love,
If that be all it’s given me.
An hour of love; upon this earth,
I would give my love to thee" - The lovely bones (film)
"My idea of good company is the company of clever, well-informed people who have a great deal of conversation; that is what I call good company." - Jane Austen
"You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love." - Henry Drummond

A not so random girl destroyed myself..
Tbh i'm not offended. I simply don't give a single fuck since i hate football and all the stupid things wich come before, during and after the show.
The players are stupids, and, of course, the supporters are ridiculous.
I won't say anything on the "Genk case" because i would be renamed "de racist waal" or something like that.
Even if De Wever has stupids ideas, at least, he's clever.
Btw, do you know what Les Wallons sont du caca means?
Even a 6 years old boy wouldn't insult his classmate like this. Have fun playing with your poop and your boogers..
J'parie que toi, si tu es wallon, tu dois être de Liège. J'ai jamais rencontré personne qui venait d'ailleurs sur ce jeu ^^
tu fais quoi?
Figure toi que je kotte quasi à côté de ton école, j'suis à ma Campagne ^^
J'en étudie deux. Anglais et Allemand. Je pouvais en prendre une troisième mais disons que c'est déjà hyper difficile comme ça et que je ne m'intéresse ni au Croate et encore moins au Japonais :p
Je l'ai pas fait l'année passée et je me suis retrouvé au pied du mur en mai, face à une session de plus d'un mois. J'ai su m'en tirer en seconde session, mais plus jamais je ne veux refaire ça :D
Sinon cette année c'est 320/mois. C'est relativement bon marché pour un kot à bruxelles, l'année passée fallait balancer 399/mois :|
LOLWTF? :S i thought we were walloon haters forever?
Deal with it, turn off your stupid ego machine.

If it comes back to you,it's yours.

Ghandi
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever."
Ghandi
Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.
- Haile Selassie I.
"Sometimes you don't know how you fit in, until you find a way to break out"
"Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now"
"Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life, but I'd rather be your moon, so I can shine on you during your darkest hour."
Jane Morales
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means - except by getting off his back.
Leo Tolstoy

- Everybody is a genius.
But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree,
it will live its whole life beliving that it is stupid.
Really like that one (Einstein)

"How come we don't always know when love begins, but we always know when it ends?"
"Your name is unknown, your deed is immortal"
"Love all, trust a few."
"We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope."

Those who mind don't matter; those who matter don't mind.
E: Arguably only one of these is a quote as I didn't state a source for the other two.
-Bob Dylan
[Dr. Johnson]
"Nitimur in vetitum semper cupimusque negata" - Ovidius
[We always strive for the things that are forbidden and we desire the ones we are denied]
"Where do I belong? Where do I fit? Who are my people? Where do my loyalties lie? We all choose our tribe. It's that need to belong, to live within boundaries, cause it's scary on the outside, on the fringes. Some labels are forced on us. They mock us, set us apart 'til we're like ghosts, drifting through other people's lives. But only if we let..."
[Being Human - S1E04]
"Als je onvoorwaardelijk voor me kiest.
Stel dat je je hart aan me verliest.
Met alle risico's van dien.
Zul je zien.. dan zul je zien.
Hoe egocentrisch, ijdel, ambitieus ik ben.
Hoe autistisch, onbereikbaar, en nerveus ik ben.
Dat ik bedachtzaam, rationeel, en ongenaakbaar ben.
Dat ik een heleboel geflipte idioten ken.
Dat ik niet koken kan en nooit een formulier invul.
Dat ik ook als ik ongelijk heb me er toch uit lul.
Dat ik soms nijg naar paranoia en geen mens vertrouw.
Dat ik niet huil maar soms m'n hele interieur verbouw.
Als je me dit allemaal kan vergeven.
Kies voor mij, en red mijn leven."
[Hans Teeuwen] - I know it's dutch but it's really nice.

I was praying alone and I realized I was talking to myself.

"Pilluhan se mielessä mutta hypätään nyt ensin"
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but
You're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
(Ooh)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
We've know each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but
You're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you"

Nicolas Anelka - 2010
It was some megapro event in SC2-scene and the crowd there was demanding HuK to build a mothership (quite one of the most underused units as a protoss) and he did that.
Now both of them could hear the crowd cheer and since there was a Halo tournament right next to the place where they played, HuK said that, pointing out that the cheering must be about Halo, making fun of his opponent and furthermore making the audience explode in laughter and cheering.
you're really good at making carriers, very useful talent toi have"[/b]

between you and the fullfillment of your dream
is the willingness to start,
the courage to move and the faith to finish"
"Wirklich reich ist, wer mehr Träume in seiner Seele hat, als die Realität zerstören kann"
Said by a horrible man, but makes perfect sense.
