Seeing as how the original one was closed back in 2007
I decided to remake it. We are all adults here correct?
So here it is, just a throwing it into the open.
The Revised Quote topic.

They can be quotes from books, Movies, games, Shows, Mangas, ANYTHING!
You can even make them up yourselves!

((But make sure they make sense))

Unlike my previous topic; "Three things we didn't know" I want to give this one a bit more freedom.
But to make sure we don't have a bunch of copy and pasting I propose we write a summary of what WE think the quote means.

I want to give us a bit of class, so here is my favorite soliloquy from The Tragedy of Hamlet



Hear you, sir;
What is the reason that you use me thus?
I loved you ever: but it is no matter;
Let Hercules himself do what he may,
The cat will mew and dog will have his day.

-William Shakespear's Hamlet

The full scene of this play can be found here

To me, Hamlet is saying that no matter what anyone will do to try and stop him he will press on.
Not even Hercules could stop me, the can will mew and This dog will have his day.

EDITED TOPIC NAME IGNORE THE RULES NOW BI*%H!

Quote:
So long as there is love and laughter I shall not be shaken in the deepest reaches of my soul by man's ability to destroy all that is good and pure within this world of ours. Anon? Or is it?
I think this means that as long as there are good things in the world whoever wrote this will not let the bad things hurt them.

Churchill's Assistant: If you were my husband, I would put poison in your tea.
Churchill~: If you were my wife, I would drink it.

Churchill again-

"This is the type of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put"

"The ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year – and to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen." (On the best qualities for a politician to have)

“I am easily satisfied with the very best.”

“Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.”

“Please be good enough to put your conclusions and recommendations on one sheet of paper in the very beginning of your report, so I can even consider reading it”

“It is a fine thing to be honest, but it is also very important to be right.”

Bertie Ahern-
"I never condone wrongdoing in any area"

"I've never heard of any man standing in a wheelchair that didn't get a seat."

"Time is a great teacher unfortunately it kills all of it's students in the end"
Nothing.

Churchill AGAIN

Citizen: Is it true I could save hundreds of pounds on my car insurance?
Churchill: Oooooh YES!

EDIT: Summary for the butthurt OP.

In this bit, the normal person doesn't trust Churchill's claim, and seeks reassurance that he really could save money with Churchill.

Churchill confirms this.

Deep.

“Beer: The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.” -Homer Simpson
Summary-He's saying that beer, a type of alcohol, is what causes problems and what fixes them in life. He's also trying to say that beer is good and bad, so basically it's nothing. Uh, idk.


“School is practice for future life, practice makes perfect and nobodys perfect, so why practice?” -Billie Joe Armstrong
Summary-He's saying to practise for future life, you have to go to school, because practise makes perfect. Except nobody's perfect so don't practise. If you do practise, you are wasting your life since you'll never be perfect.

"We, the vanquished, were all cowards and weaklings by then, whose memories, fears, and enthusiasms should not be remembered." - The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer

I find those words so true, as far too often we dismiss the losers of war as something beneath us victors. It's important for us to remember that, in the end, we are not that different and should never see the foe as anything but ourselves in a different uniform.

"It's not funny if you have to explain it." - Various


This quote means that when it comes to humorous quotations, often it is better to leave them as they are and risk a few people not getting a joke, than to explain the joke, and thus make it less funny.

"We are the ministry of silly walks" - Monty Python

In a world where most politicians are corrupt and go against what they say, one minsitry is completely honest, and do what they say they will: silly walks.

"Next time you try to stab me in the back, have the guts to do it to my face" - Malcolm Reynolds, Firefly

Here treachery is beign equated outright to cowardice, and it's seen as an insult that someone wouldn't challenge you up front, instead of facing you head on like a man, one of the defining values of Mal.
