This one’s for Fictrix in the hopes she’ll never stop bouncing off of walls. :)
Today’s Topic: Surprise
It’s too early for Mykal to supply a quote; but needless to say most of the time he’s been surprised (IG, at least) it starts with a confused “Wha...?” and ends violently.
“Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.’”
— George S. Patton |
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.

It's Friday, so it's time for something fun (this one's for Fictrix):
Today's Topic: Star Wars
"May the Force be with you."
-Common saying
"Luke, I am your father."
-Dark Vader
"Yub Yub."
-Wicket the Ewok
And for those looking for the dirty dual meanings of quotes, I'll avoid those. You know the ones, like:
"You want this, don't you?"
-Emperor Palpintine to Luke Skywalker
"Curse my metal body I wasn't fast enough!"
-C-3PO
"Look at the size of that thing!"
-Rebel pilot
You know, those kind. I'll keep far away from them *nods to himself* |

"Do I really sound like that?"
- Leia Organa Solo, Heir to the Empire, after hearing Threepio speak when he was reprogrammed to sound like her
"You don't have to believe. But be prepared to be proved wrong."
- Grand Admiral Thrawn, The Last Command
"So what is this ridiculous piece of data saying? It says that the rebels, a mere handful of them, destroyed the second Death Star! It says that they killed The Emperor and that they had a Jedi on their side! How stupid do they think we are?! Any sentient wouldn't swallow that the ultimate in Imperial technology could be destroyed by the same bunch that had blown up Alderaan trying to invent some weapon to match the original Death Star!"
- The Ante-Endor Association, The Phantom Affair, #1 of 4
"Please don't resist, sir... I'm only working as a security officer to help me through school!"
- Guard arresting Wedge Antilles, The Phantom Affair, #2 of 4
"Not a weapon, sir. It's a tool of medicine. I wasn't asked to turn over my bandages, bacta treatments, disinfectant sprays, or tranquilisers either, but I can kill a man with any of them, under the right circumstances."
- Ton Phanan, Wraith Squadron Medic, Iron Fist
"dangnabit! Uh... I mean, good, good to hear it. No sense in you running around half-naked. It's... it's distracting... I mean, for the droids."
- Atton Rand, KOTOR 2: The Sith Lords, after you finally find some clothes (if female)
"Jumping into the pit is a good idea. Get to ground faster that way."
- Exchange Thug, KOTOR 2: The Sith Lords, if you use Force Persuade to convince the thugs to hand over the credits and then jump into the bottomless pit
I could go on, but I won't... :p |

I shamelessly take blame for the current topic, heehee. And so, I will honor thee with too many quotes, to pay up for my lack of them so far :P
"In order to ensure the security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the First Galactic Empire! For a safe and secure society!"
-Darth Sidious, Revenge of the Sith
"Twice the pride, double the fall."
-Count Dooku, Revenge of the Sith

-HK47, Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, when asked what is love
"I'm sorry, Master, it's just that You have all those squishy parts. And all that water. I don't know how the constant sloshing around doesn't drive you mad."
-HK47, Knights of the Old Republic, when confronted about his view on 'organic meatbags'
"They will die a death that will last millennia, until all that remains is their code, their history, and, in the end, the shell of their armor upon the shell of a man, too easily slain by Jedi."
-Darth Traya, Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, revealing the future of the Mandalorian race
"You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine"
-Obi-Wan Kenobi, A New Hope
"Who's the more foolish: The fool, or the fool who follows him?"
-Obi-Wan Kenobi, A New Hope
"Darker the coming storm grows. I fear the dark cloud of the Sith shrouds us all."

"The ability to speak does not make you intelligent."
-Qui-Gon Jinn, The Phantom Menace
"Wipe them out. All of them!"

-Darth Vader, A New Hope
"I am altering the deal. Pray I do not alter it any further."

I missed Halloween! As much as I usually dislike the holiday, I found a new love for it when taking my boy trick or treating last night. He's two years old, but he picked up on it fast enough, and by the end was really turning on the charm to get the maximium amount of candy from the neighbors.
I couldn't be prouder.
Today's Topic: Halloween
"Where there is no imagination there is no Horror."
-Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.
"Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble."

And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore!
- Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven
Don't be afraid of darkness, be afraid of what it hides.
- Thief II
The subculture of my dreams is waiting for me to fall asleep,
I know you're scared, you should be
I know you're scared...
- Live, heropsychodreamer
Not by accident do I achieve what I wish, but by conscious destruction do I find my way. I have discovered myself in a curious labyrinth—both ancient and young—primordial, yet corrupted. Within me there exists no peace, only a light in the darkness whereby it is possible to find the way farther into the darkness, where the light exists most intensely.
- Paul Jenkins, Anatomy of a Cloud |
The subculture of my dreams
Is waiting for me to fall asleep.
I know you're scared—you should be.

Failure...it's something everyone fears. But we here at Mykal's quotes take a different view on that. *looks around at his cadre of characters and realizes that the only really successful one is the evil priest in Midor*
Ahem...anyways. Today's Topic: Failure
"When at first you don't succeed, have a beer. At least it will make her look cuter."
-Mykal
Failure, when your best just isn't good enough
-Demotivator from www.despair.com
“Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.”
-Winston Churchill
“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
-Thomas Edison |
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.

"I hate when Mykal's characters succeed. It strangely always mean that my character fails. Miserably."
-Kim, on Mykal's comment about his characters
"It is sad when your first failure happens when you're a kid at school, but it's way better than having your first school failure at the university, when you want to become a doctor."
-Kim's mom
"Ok, what have I done wrong, Again?"
-Blanche La Belle |
Frodo : What are we holding on to, Sam?
Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

The secret of success is knowing whom to blame for your failure.
--E. L. Kersten
Trying is the first step towards failure
--Homer Simpson
There is no such thing as failure, only results, with some more successful than others
--Jeff Keller
A man's life is interesting primarily when he had failed – for it's a sign that he tried to surpass himself
--Georges Clemenceau
Why make the same mistake twice when there are so many new ones?
