No evidence that Einstein said that.

And the William Wallace quote is from Braveheart, and I'm pretty sure there's no evidence of the Benjamin Franklin quote either

#3 has always been my favorite Bruce Lee quote.
Feralkyn
Honestly I'd fear either of them motherfuckers. Or at least not get into a fight with 'em.
Falanxzealot
I always thought his "be like the nature of water" was the most profound thing a teacher of self defence could encapsulate in a few words
SirDistic
I agree that's a great quote too. But the fact that Bruce Lee would ever fear anyone just does something for me.
Falanxzealot
I think he'd remind you that courage isn't the absence of fear, but being the only man in the room who knows you're afraid.

Legend has it that Lao Tzu wrote the Tao te Ching in one day.
callekiai
Lao Tzu just means "old man" or "old master". He wasn't a real guy. And the quote on this page isn't even in Tao Te Ching.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lao_tzu
callekiai
I don't believe everything I read on Wikipedia. Particularly when I have literature from qualified sources that contradict it.
hoopsnek
Which literature are you referring to?
callekiai
Introduction to 'Tao Te Ching', D.C. Lau 1963, Penguin classics. "..no reason to believe that Lao Tzu was a real person." (p. xi)
ISuperBelieveInYouTadCooper
Didn't he say it to a gatekeeper, or something? He didn't even "write" it. (According to the legend, and if he was real.)
hoopsnek
He wasn't allowed to leave unless he shared his wisdom. He wrote it all down in the Tao te Ching (The Way of Change) The book is real.
ISuperBelieveInYouTadCooper
I know the book is real, I meant Laozi himself may not have been.
ISuperBelieveInYouTadCooper
(Don't get me wrong - I majored in Asian Languages & Literatures because of this book (seriously). Love it and Laozi.)

Sir, do you understand the concept of 'humour'?
MoistenedPenguin
I upvote you anyway just for responding. Thanks for spending your time on me.
MoistenedPenguin
I just wasnt sure. No need for all this hate :(
Blodgarmpls
I upvoted you because i've misunderstood sarcasm through text before :)
MagicButtcheeks
It's not hate, it's just the overwhelming realisation of the lack of humorous understanding you present.
MoistenedPenguin
Its hard to understand sarcasm and other similar forms of humor that typically use a voice inflection through text. Imo, at least.
MagicButtcheeks
It is, but this is the kind of sarcasm Imgur makes and expects. Sorry m8, but it's true.

Unquote
Well he was gay after all.

I didn't know that, but I always figured he was lol

He very much was. A depressed homosexual that was not accepted by most people. A very sad life he has lived.

She was a fanatical zealot who cared more about saving the soul than helping people. Her House of the Dying was disgustingly selfish.
mantiscruiser61
I mean she had access to modern medicine to cure or at the very least ease the suffering the sick and dying. But no Jesus wouldn't want that

or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, [2/3]

a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place." [3/3]
