I need a quote for my senior pictures. This is gonna be underneath my senior picture in my yearbook. I need some ideas for a real kickass quote. You know, something hardcore, or funny, or thought provoking. You know! Something that doesn't make people think, "What a moron!" when they read my quote at the end of the year. I figured military would suit me just pretty since I'm all hardcore military anyways. ^_^

If you want kickass pure and simple, go with somthing Patton said.
http://military-quotes.com/Patton.htm

If you want thought provoking, go with somthing Biblical

If you want thought provoking and controversial, go with somthing a Dictator said.

I had one of these things at the end of Middle School a few years back. I remember I used Isaiah 6:8, which is often used In a military sense.

I'm with stupid -->

"Improvise, Adapt, Overcome."
-From Heartbreak Ridge

Pressure makes diamonds.
- General George Patton Jr

^_^ Thankies, guys! ^_^ (I'm not gonna use that one, I'm just setting it aside for reveiw later. Keep posting, please! ^_^)

[EDIT]

"You must do your damdest and win."
-General George S. Patton

That one's nice, too. Problem is, Patton's got a mouth that'll never get into my high school year book. Too much french!

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
-Edmund Burke

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
-Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

And then you will be in a world of ****. Because Marines are not allowed to die without permission. Do you maggots understand?

God was here before the marine corps, so you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the corps

To quote a good 101st Airborne friend of mine... "Holy crap, I made it?!"
