    I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it.

    It's not true that I had nothing on, I had the radio on.

    If you can't take me handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

    Marily Monroe

    Not a quote but a poem:

    If you think you are beaten, you are;
    If you think you dare not, you don't.
    If you'd like to win, but think you can't,
    It's almost a cinch you won't.

    If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
    For out in the world we find
    Success begins with a fellows will;
    It's all in the state of mind.

    If you think you're outclassed, you are;
    You've got to think high to rise.
    You've got to be sure of yourself before
    You can ever win a prize.

    Life's battles don't always go
    To the stronger or faster man;
    But soon or late the man who wins
    Is the one who thinks he can.


    Walter D. Wintle.

    It'something I read every day, because of course it is entirely correct.

    - "What doesn't kill you make you stronger.“ (Fr. Nietzsche) (clicheed, but true)
    - “I can resist to everything except temptation.“ (Oscar Wild)

    (paraphrased cuz I don't recall it right)
    - “React in the same fashion to praise and criticism“ (R. Kipling, If)

    I'm starting to sound like a Chinese cookie here, thus
    a quote from an alleged Chinese cookie in the movie The big chill:
    - “Friendship is the bread of life, but money is the honey.“

    And one Ripper-related:
    - “Not tonight, some other night.“ (Elizabeth Stride)
    (The only way this quote would ever come out of my mouth is in relation to work.)
