Offer some inspiration!
« on: December 30, 2012, 08:45:31 AM »
Ever have a day where you just feel like you're suppose to inspire someone else, or feeling inspired yourself and wish to share it with others? Sometimes a message about life just pops into your mind? Please, share it here and help inspire the rest of us. = )
Being a good racer in Halo isn't just about getting the best times. You have to know where your teammates and enemies are, and most of all... how to be crafty! XD -nods-

Oh... and "v.v" = sad face.

Two quotes:

"You cannot see the future, with eyes full of tears" - Medieval Total War II - Americas Campaign quote :L (Forgot who by)

and

"Is it not better to live and forget than to not live and remember?" - My own... as far as I am aware no other inspirational person has said it. Correct me if wrong but I felt proud making that up by myself.
Make way for Noddu. Lest he nods his head... in disapproval.

Sounds like you've adapted Christina Rossetti, Noddu:

Quote from: Christina Rossetti, 1830-1894, from her poeom 'Remember'
Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad.


Never mind, it's still a pretty good quote.

That speech does tend to make me well up almost every time I hear it. Its continuation is highly revealing too:

"... We shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old. "

It's not just an appeal to the British to never give up, but an appeal to the United States to join the War and turn the tide.

Came up with something this morning after watching Psych.

Often times, intelligent or skilled persons are called gifted. The truth is that it is only a gift if it is shared with the world.

I ignore if someone else said something similar before:

It doesn't matter if you are the best in your field. If you don't aim to help others, you've failed humanity.
 - or -
You shouldn't aim for people knowing your name, but for people being benefited by your creation.

A good leader is not always the most skilled person, but whoever can motivate others to do their best.

It's amazing how power makes people immature:

- In every dispute, two sides are at fault. Accepting your own mistake and understanding the other part is a sign of growth.

Often, it is those that hasten to cast blame that should be the first to apologize
