It’s long but I love it:
Will: “I’m working on this poem for a girl, but I’m not done; here’s what I got so far:
:My love for you is like a river
:Like a summer breeze that makes my soul shiver
:One look from you is more precious than gold”
looks at jazz for final line
Jazz: “let’s go get some barbecue and get busy!”

Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.
– Alexander Pope
Not exactly a quote, but I love this bit of poetry, it just reads as so beautiful:
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.
-- William Butler YeatsTalk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.
Euripides (484 BC - 406 BC) [great for humiliating opponents in debates]Order is not pressure which is imposed on society from without, but an equilibrium which is set up from within.
Jose Ortega y Gasset (1883 - 1955) [not sure where i'd use it though]I am not young enough to know everything.
