There probably is a formula for everything which is understandable as things happen for a reason and as a result of something else.

Chaos Theory:

It has been said that something as
small as the flutter of a butterfly’s
wing can ultimately cause a typhoon
halfway around the world.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss you'll be among stars. ~ Tammin Sursok

Peace, <3 & fairy dust
-Laura, exoh!

It’s not that I literally think I’m a faerie. It’s just that I feel so different from most people. And this idea of a race living underground in caverns, spending all their days dancing and playing the fiddle and eating flowers and reciting poetry and sharing their dreams, that to me sounds much more real than the way people live in this world, hating and fighting and wanting and hurting. - FLB

Imagine that I can't be comforted at all , in pieces I went from crawling into a ball. Evidence, it's in my breathing every day, less and less and less. Can you hear me now, cause I'm not doing fine, I'm drowning in my mind again - LisaMariePresley

Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.

Cole’s Law: Thinly Sliced Cabbage

Conceive. Believe. Achieve.

Condoms are easier to change than diapers!

Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation.

Confucious say "Man who stands on toilet is high on pot."

Consciousness: that annoying time between naps.

Conserve toilet paper - use both sides.

Conserve water - Shower with a friend

Constipated People Don't Give A S***.

Corduroy pillows: They're making headlines!

Could You Drive Any Better If I Shoved That Cell Phone Up Your A**?

Cover Me I'm Changing Lanes

D.A.M.M.- Drunks Against Mad Mothers

DANGER: I drive like you do!

DARE to keep cops off doughnuts.

DARE to keep the CIA off drugs.

Death is God's way of telling you not to be such a wise guy.

found them around!! enjoy them!!>.. they cheer me up!

What are your favourite motivation quotes? What quotes inspire you?

I like reading a quote which makes you think about life. There are loads of motivation quotes I like.

This is the only one I can think of of the top of my head. I will look for more.

Kites rise highest against the wind -- not with it.

this is not really a motivational quote but i thought i'd post it up because its really witty!
( my brothers maths teacher told him it)

Girls = Time x Money Time = Money
so Girls = Money x Money ( money) ^2
money = root of evil
girls = (root of evil)^2
Girls = Evil!!!!

before the inspectors revisited our school a mass of posters suddenly appeared in the staircases such as...

......you know, they were so inspirational i can't remember any of them! Oh, no i do remember one - the hand of friendship has no color (yes, it was spelt the american way, had to be, its cheesy!)

but, 2 great quotes from fellow classmates

1)with regard to death and mealtimes
"never die on an empty stomach"
2)with regard to english essays
"no quotes-BIN IT"

"Don't you doubt yourself! Doubt other people who doubt you!" - Man, I love that girl.

She makes me feel good about myself. Hehe.
