Some lot of random quotes :)
Does the extinction concept offend you? You are running away from reality and rationality. What difference does it make to you if humankind goes extinct or not? Our own life is limited to a century at best, so the tragedies of 10,000 - 100,000 years from now won't directly impact us.
Heaven has a road, but no one travels it; Hell has no gate but men will dig to get there.
There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by sword. The other is by debt.

John Adams (1735-1826)
Faith is an integral element of every realm of our life. Even mathematics has axioms, which you have to assume, to deduce the theorem. Similarly, life becomes more orderly when one accepts the axioms of tradition.
Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.
If anybody says he can think about quantum problems without getting giddy, that only shows he has not understood the first thing about them.
If quantum theory is correct, it signifies the end of physics as a science

Albert Einstein
I do not like quantum mechanics, and I am sorry I ever had anything to do with it.

Erwin Schrödinger
Doubt is one of the five mental poisons; it keeps you from finding what you seek.

Buddha
Those who have ears, can hear; those who have eyes, can see. But how can you teach the blind to see? That's the rub.
The truth that survives is simply the lie that is pleasantest to believe.
I had a thousand questions to ask God; but when I met him they all fled and didn't seem to matter.

Christopher Morley
Maybe the atheist cannot find God for the same reason a thief cannot find a policeman.
When you learn something, always use the heart.

Jet Li
and this one:
Always remember that others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.

Richard M. Nixon
All humans do is to go to a place, bountiful of nature, and live there. Then the human multiplies and sucks all the wonders there. They move to the next. There is one thing that works the same way as that: a virus.

Maybe add a comma before not?

True, but how can you love something and not have fun doing it? I'd get rid of "you love" there :D

Alright, I changed it. Thanks. I was trying to think of two quotes myself (I'm guessing that they have probably been said by someone before) that would represent some things that I believe in.

some random guy on the internet wrote: I think that Twilight is the final proof required to absolve the old hypothesis that females mature faster than males. Seriously, you’d have to be an absolute idiot to get carried away with such a tripe piece of literature that you’d believe this dumbass has any actual superpowers or even credibility as a human being. He was chosen for this role because he’s rugged – like Pete Doherty. Kristen was chosen because she’s plain and socially odd, but she’s not important anyway. The character of Bella is essentially an avatar for all prepubescent girls and mentally prepubescent women everywhere; women who want a guy in their lives whose only purpose is to be good looking and resist the overwhelming urge to kill them. God help humanity.
