Grad Quote

Post by gavtodd71 »

So...it’s that time of year

I am trying to come up with a grad quote! So i am looking through last year’s year book. There are the annoying quotes you can't read because of abbreviations like "l8er" and the funny ones with stuff like "I love yogurt" and the great ones with good quotes from other sources.

I think I would like to have one of those great quotes, but I also want to mention something that my friends will look back and recognize as either truly being "me" or just a great time or a high school experience.

But what do you guys thing would be a good quote. When you look back on high school (the older group) which quotes do you find are the best? What would you put as your quote?

Thanks for the help

Mine last year was....

My friend considered putting "Fuck Off" in binary.

I just gave a thank you to my friends and handed it in.

I didn't even get one of those, not fair.

hey I can't think right now or I'd give you a suggestion. good luck though.
don't look now, just keep watching the TV hating what's too see waiting for someone to say something that's right.

Last year I gave my best friend his quote ...

" I wanted you to know I'm hanging up my ego "

I have to find a quote for myself this year too...probably be some lyrics of sum sort :nod:
and i'm supposed to be strong & have all the answers ... a cannibal in the new church of cancer ... but i'm nothing special i'm not unique ... i have many secrets & i eat the weak... and i'm at an end ... i'm at an end... and there's ... NO WAY OUT!!

i need to find my sanctuary ..... someplace safe ... gotta get this outta me ..... this is my escape

My senior quote was actually "Ordinary's just not good enough today." because I am a loser like that.

Ive been searching OLP and MGB lyrics for some freaking kick ass quote. Found some good quotes, but none relevant to situation so far. Any ideas?

For some reason, I would love mine to be 'Le bonheur n'est pas un poisson que vouz pouvez pecher'...

Inspired by someone's signature in the CC (sorry, I forgot who you were!).

Hmm, a Matt Good quote? I'd go with "Today I'm leaving this bullshit one-horse town..." in stead of the 'Cowboys and Indians' line. I hate Vancouver with all my heart.
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

I think that one's awesome. We were supposed to have quotes and they went around collecting em, but they never showed up in the year book. :(
