I thought I'd order a couple of t-shirts with buk-quotes on 'em - for the summer you know.
Thought it would be fun to get a list of suggestions from the forum.
Sort of like Bobbes "ipod" thread.

Rules:
-You get one line/suggestion each.
-Remember to give the source.
-Its gotta fit easily on a t-shirt!

Here's my pick of the moment:
SUNLIGHT HERE I AM!

From the title of the book of interviews.

Any other canididates?:rolleyes:

"humanity!
you Never had it
from the beginning."

I still love the quote on the poster by Water Row Press with the Crumb drawing -
'A man who can beat the horses
can do anything he makes up his
mind to do.'

Although my favourite is 'My ambition is handicapped by my laziness.'
Wll done Rubyred!!

1) "It's 4:30 in the morning, it's always 4:30 in the morning."

2) "LSD, yeah, the big parade - everybody's doin' it now. Take LSD, then you are a poet, an intellectual. What a sick mob. I am building a machine gun in my closet now to take out as many of them as I can before they get me. "

3) "Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead."

4) "Slouching Towards Nirvana"

I bet you could fit the second one on if you use small lettering.
