I'm bored, okay?

Quotes:

1."So tell me, how does it feel to be living in a constant haze of stupidity?" -Hiei (Yuu Yuu Hakusho)

2. "Kurama, there is no one who does not carry scars on his heart. If there were someone in the world like that, they'd be a shallow soul" -Hiei (Yuu Yuu Hakusho)

3. " Don't ever forget that with each step a person is able to take on their own, they have become that much stronger." -Tamahome (Fushigi Yuugi)

4. " Because I'm a good guy, I have one more piece of advice. If you don't want to kill yourself, you should probably stay away from Mercedes SLE's, and SAAB Cabriolets. Because if you get in front of me again, I'll hit you and then back up over you for good measure." -Yuki Eiri to Shindou Shuichi (Gravitation)

5. "Why? In some cases, we learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself. This is one of those cases. I could tell you why, but at the moment it would only be more confusing. If you grow up with any kind of sense-which you sometimes make me doubt-you will very likely reach your own conclusions...They will probably be wrong. However, since they will be yours, you will feel a little more satisfied with them." -Dallben (The Chronicles of Prydain: The Book of Three)

6. "Comes from a barrow, eh? I suggest getting rid of it immediately. Never had much confidence in things you find in barrows. It's a bad buisness having anything to do with them. You can't be sure where else they've been and who's all had them." -Fflewddur Fflam (Chronicles of Prydain: The Book of Three)

7. "No life should be born for the sole purpose of dying." -Lloyd Irving (Tales of Symphonia)

8. "I pity you for bumping into me!" -Kalas (Baten Kaitos)

9. "Us hero's, we have so much to do." -Mizuti (Baten Kaitos)

10. "I don't know. Some things in life, we're just not supposed to know." -Xelha (Baten Kaitos)

12. "Real men play doubles." -Ryoma Echizen (Prince of Tennis)

13. "But I'm a computer hacker...a safe cracker, and a butt smacker...And I've got just the equipment to trim your hedge." -Aoi Kyogoku -aka Flippy- (Imadoki!)

14. "So it'll be just like it always has between us...except now we can make out." -Akito Hayama (Kodomo no Omocha)

15. "But of course! It may be difficult for you to understand now, Yuki, but these are all forms of...MEN'S ROMANCE! Maids and nurses, waitresses and stewardesses abd secretaries! Sailor suits and cat ears, rabbit ears...There's too many to list! In these simple fashions, men chase their dreams and bring their romantic fantasies to life! There's no crime in pursuing your dreams to escape the harsh reality of life. Its no different than the romantic urge to peek into a woman's bath!" - Ayame Sohma (Fruits Basket)

16. "The feeling that has now sprouted in your heart is what is called a man's romantic fantasy! A man is a being whose heart is swayed by a single costume, after all. This is good! I understand. Of course I understand! This wondeful day shall be known as -- The day of Yuki's Romantic Fantasy!" -Ayame Sohma (Fruits Basket)

17. "Young Lord, be careful. I know you're good-hearted, well-meaning, kindly, with a sweet and innocent nature. Therefore, you're about to do something stupid." -Mafoo (The Remarkable Journey of Prince Jen)

18. "Let me analyze it. Ah. Yes. I can identify the subtle ingredients. One part fried cabbage. One part wandering livestock. Two parts old rags. Four parts sweat. The rest, a concentrated absence of cash. Mixed with the correct proportions of thievery, beggary, and a generous pinch of greedy officials, it is called 'Sublime Essence of Wretchedness'" -Mafoo (The Remarkable Journey of Prince Jen)

19. "All killing them would do is lower the idiot population." -Sanzo (Saiyuki)

20. "Ah, I see how it is now. You two are nuts! If you get me killed in there, I swear I'll come back as a ghost and haunt you forever! You've been warned." -Kalas (Baten Kaitos)

21. "Sounds nice on paper, I'll give you that. Staying nice and fair, while the whole world falls apart around you!" -Kalas (Baten Kaitos)

22. "Even though he led all those half-elves, he no longer has any friends left that he actually trusted." -Presea Combatir (Tales of Symphonia)

23. "The Derris Emblem is Mithos' darkness itself. He was oppressed as a half-elf, then praised as a hero, then betrayed. It is his hatred and resentment toward that." -Kratos Aurion (Tales of Symphonia)

24. "I want to become someone who can smile and forgive everything." -Presea Combatir (Tales of Symphonia)

25. " But despite all that, I could feel how strongly she loved the world, so much that it hurt. Even though it wouldn't have been strange if she'd hated it, just like Mithos. Yes...I think she would be willing to sacrifice herself to save the world." -Colette Brunel (Tales of Symphonia)

26. "...Incompetent good intentions will only bring tragedy. If you intend to do what is right, you need the strength to accompany that. You lacked that. You were weak." -Kratos Aurion (Tales of Symphonia)

27. "...Power is more than just your physical strength. The strength to acknowledge your crimes. The strength to remember them. You must have them as well." -Kratos Aurion (Tales of Symphonia)

28. "While you're complaining about these little nitpicky details, you're keeping Yggdrasill waiting. Do you want to tick him off?" -Lloyd Irving (Tales of Symphonia)

29. "Humans are shameless creatures that carelessly ignore any misfortune which does not befall them directly. They can --and often do-- turn a blind eye to all manner of wickedness so long as it does not touch them or their kin. They will bow their heads, condemning those victims for bringing calamity upon themselves, and then they will cast their eyes toward heaven in thanks while their neighbours lay dying around them." -Soren (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

30. "Yes! We must! Have you forgotten Nasir?! It's that sort of naive attitude that allowed him to remain undetected for so long! You people don't seem to get it. We are at WAR! All doubts, no matter how small, must be extinguished. If they aren't, we may well be ignoring something that will lead to our defeat. Or to our death." -Soren (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

31. "Don't say things like that! I'm shocked that you would understand such subtleties. Who are you, and what have you done with Ike?" -Ranulf (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

32. "You there, in the bushes. You have until the count of five to show yourself before I start throwing sharp objects. One...two...four..." -Volke (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

33. "I'm in favor of helping her. That's what heros are supposed to do." -Boyd (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

34. "Really? I never thought I'd hear that. Ike didn't sleep because he was thinking. I wonder if Soren will start being polite..." -Titania (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)

35. "If I have no purpose it is because my life has been made deliberatly purposeless! I am not trusted enough to be given the responsibility of a purpose!" -Drago (The Wayfarer Redemption: Sinner)

36 "They...didn't have anyone to cry for them, like you have. During conflicts, harboring feelings like yours will bring intense pain. That's why everyone hates one another and fights each other. So that the pain can be forgotten, even if only for an instant. It's not just the people of Shin Makoku. The human's also experience the same pain. It's no one's fault." -Julia Sussanah (Kyou Kara Maou!)

37. "Ibn Bashir, count the blessings of your birth stars that a butcher needs no more brains than the meat he carves." -Husari ibn Musa (The Lions of Al-Rassan)

38. "Yeah, it's an off day when I don't get somebody telling me how edible I smell." -Bella Swan (Twilight)

39. "Men always believe they are in control of everything around them,...When they find out they are not, they think they have failed, instead of learning a simple truth women already know." -Aviendha (The Wheel of Time Book 5: The Fires of Heaven)

40. "As we skulked back to the makeshift garage, I contemplated my luck. Only a teenage boy would agree to this: deceiving both our parents while repairing deangerous vehicals using money meant for my college education. He didn't see anything wrong with that picture. Jacob was a gift from the gods." -Bella Swan (New Moon)

41. "I was thrilled. This had to be it, the recipe for a hallucination--adrenaline plus danger plus stupidity. Something close to that anyway." -Bella Swan (New Moon)

42. "You're wounding my ego, Bella. I just proposed to you, and you think it's a joke." -Edward Cullen (New Moon)

43. "A fine thing. The High Lords of Tear sweated when Rand al'Thor looked at them, and the Cairhienin might offer him their throne. The greatest Aiel army the world had ever seen had crossed the Dragonwall on the orders of the Car'a'carn, the chief of chiefs. Nations trembled at mention of the Dragon Reborn. Nations! And if he did not find his clothes, he would sit waiting on permission to go outside from a lot of women who thought they knew better about everything than he did." -Rand al'Thor (The Fires of Heaven)

44. "Ike...Please live...Even if all the cities burn, and the seas swallow Tellius...You mustn't die...Not you..." -Soren (Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn)

45. "Men!...Too blind to see what a stone could see, and too stubborn to be trusted to think for themselves." -Min Farshaw (The Dragon Reborn)

Notes -- Last Update: November 4th, 2008 @ 10:35 PM

New updates: Flighty Spirits was completed yesterday, but I forgot to mention it. But it's done. Second chapter was a bit shorter than the first although I still thought it turned out well. Which is good, seeing as I re-wrote it over and over again...and thus left the story inactive for about six months. Just now I put up a little one-shot about Murtagh from the Inheritance Cycle which I have called Puppet Master because we all know Galbitorix is just that. It ignores Brisingr for the reason that the story is set directly after the Battle of the Burning Plains. So please, don't try to point out anything you think is wrong, because if it was mentioned only in Book 3, well...that's WHY it's not in the one-shot :) Other than this...don't expect any updates to anything else for a while. School calls me...
