“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”

These may be more funny than inspiring >.< but thought i should give them a post anyway xD

 

I love hanging out on bash.org xD there's sometimes some really fun IRC quotes on there XD

 

Also im a coder and somehow find this funny

• Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
• If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
• If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.
• Any non-trivial program contains at least one bug.
• Any program will expand to fill all available memory.
• The value of a program is directly proportional to the weight of its output.
• The complexity of a program will grow until it exceeds the capability of the programmer to maintain it.
• Make it possible for programmers to write in English and you will find that programmers cannot write in English.
• If builders built buildings the way programmers write programs, the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization.
• Inside every small program is a large program struggling to get out.
• If a test installation functions perfectly, all subsequent systems will malfunction.
• Not until a program has been in production for at least six months will its most harmful error be discovered.
• Undetectable errors are infinite in variety, in contrast to detectable errors, which are by definition limited.
• If the input editor has been designed to reject all bad input, an ingenious idiot will discover a method to get bad data past it.
• Build a system that even a fool can use, and only a fool will want to use it.
• Machines work; people should think.
• A carelessly planned project takes three times longer to complete than expected; a carefully planned project will take only twice as long.
• Adding manpower to a late project makes it later.
• The effort required to correct an error increases geometrically with time.
• Only ten percent of the code in any given program will ever be executed.

“We’re so self-important. Everybody’s going to save something now. “Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save those snails.” And the greatest arrogance of all: save the planet. Save the planet, we don’t even know how to take care of ourselves yet. I’m tired of this shit. I’m tired of f-ing Earth Day. I’m tired of these self-righteous environmentalists, these white, bourgeois liberals who think the only thing wrong with this country is that there aren’t enough bicycle paths. People trying to make the world safe for Volvos. Besides, environmentalists don’t give a shit about the planet. Not in the abstract they don’t. You know what they’re interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They’re worried that some day in the future they might be personally inconvenienced. Narrow, unenlightened self-interest doesn’t impress me.

The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles … hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages … And we think some plastic bags and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference? The planet isn’t going anywhere. WE are!

We’re going away. Pack your shit, folks. We’re going away. And we won’t leave much of a trace, either. Maybe a little Styrofoam … The planet’ll be here and we’ll be long gone. Just another failed mutation. Just another closed-end biological mistake. An evolutionary cul-de-sac. The planet’ll shake us off like a bad case of fleas.

The planet will be here for a long, long, LONG time after we’re gone, and it will heal itself, it will cleanse itself, ’cause that’s what it does. It’s a self-correcting system. The air and the water will recover, the earth will be renewed. And if it’s true that plastic is not degradable, well, the planet will simply incorporate plastic into a new paradigm: the earth plus plastic. The earth doesn’t share our prejudice toward plastic. Plastic came out of the earth. The earth probably sees plastic as just another one of its children. Could be the only reason the earth allowed us to be spawned from it in the first place. It wanted plastic for itself. Didn’t know how to make it. Needed us. Could be the answer to our age-old egocentric philosophical question, “Why are we here?”
