Some of my favorite quotes come from Henry Rollins:
"Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue.
Realize the strength, move on.”
“Don't do anything by half.
If you love someone, love them with all your soul.
When you go to work, work your a** off.
When you hate someone, hate them until it hurts."
“To hate is to show you still care."
“Nothing brings people together more then mutual hatred”
“Hope is the last thing a person does before they are defeated.”
“I think about the meaning of pain. Pain is personal.
It really belongs to the one feeling it.
Probably the only thing that is your own. I like mine.”
“Loneliness adds beauty to life.
It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.”
"As long as I tell the truth I feel that nobody can touch me."
Some others that I like:
"We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it."
-The Breakfast Club
"History was written by those who hanged the heroes."
-Braveheart
"I am ready to meet my maker.
Whether my maker is prepared to meet me is another matter."
-Winston Churchill

but because of those who look on and do nothing."
-Albert Einstein
"Not all those who wander are lost."

man would never have dreamt of divinity"

"If I die, I forgive you, if I recover, we shall see."

"To himself everyone is immortal;
he may know that he is going to die,
but he can never know that he is dead"

As for me, though,
the only quote I've ever even considered getting was
"A dollar under water keeps on dreaming for me."
Very feminine and lyrical.
