DAY SIX = A QUOTE

Sep 26, 2009 22:49

Day one: a song
Day two: a picture
Day three: a book/ebook/fanfic
Day four: a site
Day five: a youtube clip
Day six: a quote
Day seven: whatever tickles your fancy

Honestly, I have no idea what to post with this one... The first one that pop into my mind was this one:
You can take the man out of the Viking era, but you can't take the Viking out of the man...
It's from Charlaine Harris's series The Southern Vampire Mysteries - Dead to the World (book 4)

Then, I remembered this poem from Robbie Williams:Hello Sir

Hello Sir, remember me?
I'm the man you thought I'd never be
The boy who you reduced to tears
Lad called 'thingy' for six whole years.

Yes, that's right, my name's Bob
The one who landed the pop star's job
The one you told, look don't touch
The kid who wouldn't amount to much.

Well, I'm here and you're still there
With a fake sports car and receding hair.
Dodgy Farah trousers that you think are smart
Married to the woman who teaches art.

Married to the life, married to the school
I wanna sing and dance Sir; now who's the fool?
Sing and dance, you thought I was barmy
Settle down thingy, join the army.

And who are you to tell me this?
The dream I want I'll have to miss
Sir is God, he's been given the right
To structure lives overnight.

Now I know life's true path
Tanks and guns that'll be a laugh
No, not me I'm a mega civilian
I won't lead my life riding pillion.

But thanks for the advice and I'm sure it'll do
For the negative dickheads just like you.
As for now I've a different weapon
Stage and scene is about to beckon.

And here I sit in first class
Bollocks Sir, kiss my arse...

And lastly, I guess I could post my favourite quote from one of my all time favourite films, Snatch:
Brick Top: Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... me.

Now, if you ask me why the hell did I choose these, the only answer you're gonna get is "I have absolutely NO IDEA."

But, anyway, thanks for reading and don't worry, this meme ends tomorrow! XD

about me, !lj meme, boredom
