Best Quotes

Before I do what I came here to do, you should all keep in mind that my high school of choice was the Philological gymnasium, where I was constantly encouraged to correct people when it comes to language-related mistakes. I don`t do it to show off or anything like that, it`s just become second nature to me and I always love it when people correct me, should I make a mistake. Obviously I`m not gonna correct all the mistakes since most of them are probably made by accident while typing, but I just could not let this one go

A new Super-Saiyin has emerged, and somehow, I have become this popish witness.

sorry myst but the word popish means something that isn`t even remotely connected to DBZ , what Vegeta ( from DBZ, not the admin ) said was: " I have become this pauper`s witness ", the word pauper ( prosjak ) is outdated and isn`t used very much nowadays so that may be the reason why you haven`t heard of it

Once again I hope there are no hard feelings

"Goku je najjaci !!!"- by ningen and myself

^Heeey "Goku je najjaci!!!!!!"[which btw on Serbian mean simply "Goku is the strongest!!!!!"] is by ME and BlackSwordman(from this forum, he's my real-life friend!) don't steal it from us!!! ahah justkidding, it is something obvious to say ^^

Hey hey ppl btw, GokuSSJ4 is "Yagami" the guy that helped me with this petition many times, and I wanna give him a credit for all grammar/spelling corrections as well as the GREAT suggestions.
Hopefully two of us will finish petition today...if we meet on MSN, but nothing is for sure...

And yeah I think there are some more mistakes in some quotes, but they are not worth of mentioning, so just keep writing, the point is the same...

@Sephiroth, nice qute there Sephi! sound very interesting, I'll maybe watch that anime.

@mystangel, I am more surprised because of your GREAT choice, that is very similar to my choice, but I am also surprised because you have all that written [pametan pishe lud pamti], less or more I have that all in head (with approximate precission accent and pronounciation).

For example, this qute - "You may have invaded my mind and my body...But there's one thing a Saiyan always keeps...his PRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Brings the chills up my spine across the neck to the hair...It's like I'm almost becoming a Super Saiyan It's just indescribable, just....man! that is not a damn masterpiece, that is something faaaar above it, something ultimate for me!

And to be the sickest, that is not the only qute of that kind of course, all the quotes mystangel mentioned, make me feel like that... nostalgic(because the first impression of those scenes were looong ago) and inspirated! and some other feelings that I can't describe, all in all summed it can only be described like an - "ultimate moral satisfaction".

@GokuSSJ4... Of coooourse there are no hard feelings... Actually, thank you for the correction...
In case you're right, and I'm sure you are, there's a mistake in transcripts that I have... So, I'll check on the internet, and correct it here and there... And yes, there are actually plenty interpretations in such cases... so I didn't bother with correcting them... But once again, thanx for the suggestion...
And ppl... if you see more mistakes... of course you can correct me...

@Vegeta... um... just... wow... [and I'm really glad you like the quote selection]

Well, he was thinking about me when he sad it, that's way I like it



Sesshomaru: "Are you insist on going?"
Inu no Taishou: "Are you intend to stop me Sesshomaru?"
Sesshomaru "No, but before you go, you must intrust your fangs, Tessaiga and S'ounga, to me."
Inu no Taishou: "And if I refuse, will you kill me, your own father...hmm ... why do you seek power, my son?"
Sesshomaru: "My path is the way of Supreme Conquest and in his power it will reveal the way for me."
Inu no Taishou: "Hmm... Supreme Conquest?... Tell me Sesshomaru, do you have someone to protect?"
Sesshomaru: "Someone to protect???...The answer is NO... I, Sesshomaru, have no need for such."

Who fallows manga understand irony here... the key for absolute Sesshomaru's power is the need for someone to protect

Sesshomaru:(remembering Inu no Taishou:"...do you have someone to protect?") for himself: "Father you die with such a pitifully death, you who had ultimate power, who was destined for me to defeat, you gave your life for a human and Inuyasha's mother no less..." to Inuyasha: "You and your mother cause his miserable death, now die half-bread."

Sesshomaru (to Inuyasha): "You born ignored, you will die like a ignored half-bread"


"The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?"

The answer is: For me

^Oh, yes of course it's for you... you're the center of... everything...

[here's one of my favorite quotes about vegetarianism...]
-------------------------------------------------------
Plutarch: "Can you really ask what reason Pythagoras had for abstaining from flesh? For my part I rather wonder both by what accident and in what state of soul or mind the first man did so, touched his mouth to gore and brought his lips to the flesh of a dead creature, he who set forth tables of dead, stale bodies and ventured to call food and nourishment the parts that had a little before bellowed and cried, moved and lived. How could his eyes endure the slaughter when throats were slit and hides flayed and limbs torn from limb? How could his nose endure the stench? How was it that the pollution did not turn away his taste, which made contact with the sores of others and sucked juices and serums from mortal wounds? … It is certainly not lions and wolves that we eat out of self-defense; on the contrary, we ignore these and slaughter harmless, tame creatures without stings or teeth to harm us, creatures that, I swear, Nature appears to have produced for the sake of their beauty and grace. But nothing abashed us, not the flower-like like tinting of the flesh, not the persuasiveness of the harmonious voice, not the cleanliness of their habits or the unusual intelligence that may be found in the poor wretches. No, for the sake of a little flesh we deprive them of sun, of light, of the duration of life to which they are entitled by birth and being. If you declare that you are naturally designed for such a diet, then first kill for yourself what you want to eat. Do it, however, only through your own resources, unaided by cleaver or cudgel or any kind of ax."

Damn that was sad

Stupid humans! I said the humans are always the most aproppriate ones to blame...

Stupid humans?... don't say nonsense

What about tigers, wolfs, lions, dogs... and other animals who eat meat. I'm a idealist too, but this is just naive

@Vegeta... we talked about this... so... don't make me feel bad for putting that quote...

@Sephi... hmm... well I can talk about that for hours, trust me... but not here and not now... First, because that would be offtopic and second... I'm not sure if I could explain all that on eng... And btw... I'm not an idealist... Actually, I consider myself a realist...

[serbian] Evo ipak jos jednom Plutarhova misao prevedena i malo skracena... Mozda i zvuci pomalo idealisticki... ali meni se dopada... istovremeno osecajno, mirno, smisleno i kriticki... ko da sam ja rekla [Sephi, ono dole boldovano je donekle odgovor na tvoje pitanje... samo donekle naravno... ]

Plutarh ( 45-125), grčki filozof i pisac:
"Umete li zaista da postavite pitanje , iz kojih razloga se Pitagora uzdržavao jedenja mesa ? Pitam se , - pod kojim okolnostima i u kojem stanju duha se čovek po prvi put savladao da ustima dodirne krv, da usne prinese mesu leša životinje i svoj sto ukrasi telima koja se raspadaju i sebi onda dozvolio da te delove koji su neposredno pre toga urlali i zapomagali , kretali se i živeli, nazove hranom. Zasogurno se ne radi o lavovima i vukovima koje jedemo da bismo se zaštitili – naprotiv, na te životinje mi uopšte ne obraćamo pažnju . Mi štaviše, koljemo bezazlena, krotka i pitoma stvorenja bez bodlji i zuba , koja nam ionako ničim ne bi mogla naškoditi . Zbog mesa im oduzimamo sunce, svetlost i život koji im od rođenja pripadaju . Ako sada hoćete da tvrdite da je priroda za vas takvu hranu predvidela, onda ubijte sami ono što ste mislili da pojedete , ali svojim od prirode datim sredstvima, a ne pomoću noža za klanje, buzdovana ili sekire."

Yes, but beasts with animals you always know which kind of busineess you have(read - don't come close to them!!! ), and with man you never know...they can stab a knife in your backs at any time...

^Dammit man, that sounds so depressive!
Lost faith in humanity, eh?

not totally of course ^^ but long ago I have said "humans are disgusting creatures"

VEGETA_DTX wrote:"humans are disgusting creatures"

You are human too, I'm a human and other people that I love are... so don't say stupid things

Idealist have nothing to do with realist... idealist are those who treasure more spiritual things then materials... that doesn't have anything to do are you or not realistic... you sad you can talk about this for hours, don't you know why?... because that what you saying isn't a fact [serbian]zato shto je diskutabilno, shto znachi stvar vidjenja i SVOG sopstvenog ubedjenja.... shto nas dovodi do toga da obadve strane greshe i da su u pravu...[/serbian]

^O-ooo! A huge mistake telling that to Vegeta... If there's one thing you may not tell him, it's that he's a human... you should have known that... [can't wait his reaction now... ]
Though, personally, I agree with you... And I'll always believe in humanity no matter what...

And about the second part...
[serbian] Pazi, kada si rekao idealista, mislila sam da govoris o osobi koj tezi idealima... koja je sklona idealizaciji sveta oko sebe prilikom razmisljanja... I sa te strane sam taj izraz povezala sa realizmom... No, dobro, razumela sam te sad. A naravno da je ona tema diskutabilna... Nikad nisam ni rekla da nije... Mislim, malo je stvari na svetu koje su uopste puke cinjenice i koje ne zahtevaju diskusiju... Ovo je zapravo pitanje naseg vidjenja ispravnog, ili kako si rekao - ubedjenja [mada ne volim tu rec]... Tako da u potpunosti tolerisem suprotno misljenje o ovoj temi [naravno sve dok se bazira na smislenim argumentima] i upravo iz tih razloga uopste nisam pristalica ekstremnih shvatanja ili ubedjivanja drugih u ispravnost sopstvenog nacina razmisljanja...
U svakom slucaju, za nastavak "diskusije", konsultuj PM... da ne sirim pricu ovde… jer ono "I can talk about that for hours" uopste nije bila hiperbola... [/serbian]
