Hello, everyone. I am hosting a wise quotes contest! This could be the biggest quote contest prize ever so listen close.

I like having 5555 gold. I am content with it. I thank PenguinManiac for helping me reach my goal. But whenever I make a post, I will lose my place with 5555 gold! So, in this contest, whoever makes the wisest quote / set of quotes will get my extra gold I make until I decide I want more gold for myself.

Judging criteria:
Each quote will be judged with points.
1 point = Foolish
2 points = Somewhat wise
3 points = Wise
4 points = Very Wise
5 points = A Grand Wise quote.
You can do more than one quote. The maximum amount of quotes is 10. This means a perfect score will be a 50. Good luck to everybody, and have fun!!!

The fool man wonders, the wise man asks.

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.

Friends come an go, but family is forever.

Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, but you know they're always there.

Not only does a smile cost less than electricity, it also brightens your day.

Don't be fooled by your emptiness, there's so much room for your happiness.

If you love something let it go, if it comes back to you it's yours, if it doesn't it never was, and it's not meant to be.

Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself.

Imagination is more important than knowledge
Someone who is good at something was once an ametuer
A friend who would sacrifice millions is better than a million friends
Bitter truth is better than the sweetest lies
Someone who is once wise was once stupid
Everyone has its beauty, but not everyone sees it.
Ignorance is the night of the mind, but without a moon and a star
It doesn't matter how slowly you go as long as you don't stop
Our glory is never is never falling, but in getting up time we do
A superior man seeks in himself, a stupid man seeks in others

NOTE: Some of these quotes I do not own. If I do not own them, I will put a tildae (which looks like this: ~) and the name of the person that originally coined the phrase(s).


"A good beginning makes a good ending." ~Louis L'Amour

"Failure is life's way of telling you to try again."

"Whether you think you can or you can't -- you're correct." ~Henry Ford

"Life is like the Titanic; when you hit the iceberg, you start to sink."

"Easy, attainable goals only lead up to a mediocre life. Make your goals impossibly big; achieving them will be a great feeling."

"If the airplane's going down, either go down with it or jump off and bring a parachute along with you. If it doesn't open, find the reserve parachute quick."

"Good fortune isn't going to fall into your lap; you have to work for it."

"When in doubt, break apart the door and escape."

"When there is no wind, row the boat."

"When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on."

"Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out"

"I have never really seen too much difference between writing or making visual art or designing furniture or clothing. It’s still my brain – I’m just using different parts of it for different things."

"We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas."

"I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, “If this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is.”

"I make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes."

"Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different."

"I don’t feel the least humble before the vastness of the heavens."

"Be all of yourself…get a vision of your future that is authentic to yourself that will make a difference in the world."

"Your problem is you think you have time."

"Always acting by his maxims in every case to bring his situation back to universal order and growth, along inherent tendencies."

"Never make your home in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You’ll find what you need to furnish it – memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey."

Here Is My Entry:

Never Give Up, Belive In Yourself
You Can Do
What Whom Concerns Says
Nobody Could Be As Brave As You As You Are To Yourself
But Everyone Is As Brave As Eachother
Everyone Is As Wise
As They Think Their Braveness
But Nobody
Could Just Belive In Theirself
They Belive In Everyone

This Is My Wise Quote! I Hope You Liked It!
