Quotes give a lot about a champion's view on things and, y'know, sometimes playing a certain champion a lot can imprint them on you if you listen to them long enough.
What are some of the most inspirational quotes you hear from the champions you play? Skins count!
"Seize today, and you've earned tomorrow."
"Distance means so little when family means so much."
I miss my family. Even though I wrangled with my brother again and we're not speaking currently, I miss all of them.
"The darker the night, the brighter the stars."
This makes so much sense as when you are in a really bad statue or position, any little help may look huge to you. Kind people and their actions earn more value when you are in trouble. Your friend giving 10 dollars to you when you don't need and when you need are 2 different things.
I have risen from the filth and muck, I am the lotus blossom. I am beauty.

"Sometimes you gotta MAKE a door!"
"It's not how much time you have, it's how you use it."
"If life hasn't changed you, you have failed!"

"I do what others will not. That alone is innovation." "Breathe in the atmosphere."
When you dance with death, lead.

MY PERSONAL FAVORITE "Wisdom is frequently a kick in the head."

I remember one from Zed that could be interpreted as critique towards certain aspects of religion, laws and society.
«Tradition is the corpse of wisdom».
Tradition is the habit of keeping up with outdated practices that once upon a time was sensible, such as in the middle ages not eating meat from pigs as they carried a lot of diseases and the poor would often eat them undercooked out of desperation.
Today we have the means to turn the meat completely safe - yet multiple religions insist on outlawing the meat, out of tradition. The corpse of ancient wisdom, now rotted, out of place and malformed.

Reviving necro- threads which already had their time to shine is against Universal Rules and as such I will be locking this thread to make sure it lands at the bottom of the howling abyss. I would strongly encourage looking at how old a thread is before commenting on it.
