Brigitte's favorite quotes

"Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. "
Albert Camus

"Imagination is more important than knowledge."
Albert Einstein

1742
"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify them, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."
Jack Kerouac

1655
"Whenever I feel the need to exercise, I lie down until it goes away."

"In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."
