Life, the Universe and Everything

E-mail signatures can be a bit dull at time. The trouble is they have to be "functional" for those official e-mails you send from time to time but a good signature quote can really liven up a "boring" e-mail! :-) The other problem is the four-line sig length limit... I've come across some very cool ones that I just can't stick in my signature 'cos they're far too long, so I thought I'd stick them here for anyone who was interested....

Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
[Lord Tennyson - Charge of the Light Brigade]

Stress! Yes. A person's strength flows from stress. But beware of the dark side.
Panic.... Sleep deprivation... Disorganisation. The dark side of stress are they.
Easily they flow, quick to join you when revision you do. If once you start down
the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will.
[With apologies to Jedi Master Yoda]

You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair.
Then I thought 'Wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair,
and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we
actually deserve them?' So now I take great comfort in the general
hostility and unfairness of the universe.
[Marcus Cole - Babylon 5]

happily vacationing in the land of not coping.

We are grey. We stand between the darkness and the light..

Good heavens! I don't know how you got here,
did you sneak inside my head?
Or did you say a few sweet words and sneak inside my bed?
...
Coz this is the White Room, my asylum - And you are welcome.
[Alisha's Attic - White Room]

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie. 
[J.R.R. Tolkien - The Lord of the Rings]

Buffy Ann Summers. She Saved the World. A Lot.
["The Gift" - Buffy the Vampire Slayer]

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick inside without a sense of feelin'
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
[Nickelback - How You Remind Me]

The Master: "But you're dead?!"
Buffy: "Yeah, but I'm still pretty." 
["Prophecy Girl" - Buffy the Vampire Slayer]
