Give up on yourself, and you give up on the world.

both are from The World Ends With You... those two quotes really changed how I look at things.

"It is the folly of men to believe that they are great players on the stage of history, that their actions might affect the grand procession that is the passage of time. It is an insulating conceit a powerful man might clasp tight to his bosom that he might sleep away the night, safe in the knowledge that, but for his presence, the world would not turn, the mountains would crumble and the seas dry up. But in the remembrance of history has taught us anything, it is that, in time, all things wll pass. Unnumbered civilisations before ours are naught but dust and bones, and the greatest heroes of their age are forgotten legends. No man lives forever and even as memory fades, so too will any remembrance of him.It is a universal truth and an unavoidable law that cannot be denied, despite the protestations of the vain, the arrogant and the tyrannical."

"Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole COUNTRY decides that something wrong is something right.
This nation was founded on one principle above all else- The requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or consequences.
When the mob & press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth and tell them all- 'NO. YOU MOVE.'"

Ergh, I know that quote but I can't think of where it's from and it's bugging me, where is that quote from?Cipher1 said:
It's not really a line, but a full conversation. But Death from the Discworld books is one of my favorite characters of all time and this is one of the big reasons why. It sums up human nature pretty well.
?All right," said Susan. "I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need... fantasies to make life bearable."
REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.
"Tooth fairies? Hogfathers? Little?"
YES. AS PRACTICE. YOU HAVE TO START OUT LEARNING TO BELIEVE THE LITTLE LIES.
"So we can believe the big ones?"
YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING.
"They're not the same at all!"
YOU THINK SO? THEN TAKE THE UNIVERSE AND GRIND IT DOWN TO THE FINEST POWDER AND SIEVE IT THROUGH THE FINEST SIEVE AND THEN SHOW ME ONE ATOM OF JUSTICE, ONE MOLECULE OF MERCY. AND YET?Death waved a hand. AND YET YOU ACT AS IF THERE IS SOME IDEAL ORDER IN THE WORLD, AS IF THERE IS SOME... SOME RIGHTNESS IN THE UNIVERSE BY WHICH IT MAY BE JUDGED.
"Yes, but people have got to believe that, or what's the point?"
MY POINT EXACTLY.?
