Quote game

This is forum game I've come up involving quotes.
Basically it goes like this...
The object of the game is to use a quote that contains either at least one word as the previous quote or has something in common with the previous quote. Non English quotes or chat speak ones are fine just so long as a standard or at least rough English translation is posted with it. If you want to put links for references of certain quotes, it's fine, just so long as it is done according to DCTP forum rules.

You don't have to use only quotes made by famous people! You can use quotes from books, anime and manga series, video games, comics, web comics, television shows, movies, music lyrics and even people you know in real life. Just try to refrain from using quotes with a lot of profanity!

I'll start with this:

"If you want to test a guy's sincerity, serve him a bad cup of coffee. If he praises it, he's not to be trusted"

Lilian Jackson Braun's The Cat Who Saw Red

That's right, isn't it? XD

I do not consider it an insult, but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic. I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure - that is all that agnosticism means.

The law isn't justice. It's a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer. A mechanism is all the law was ever intended to be.
