- You Can Always Edit
So many of these quotes either get downvoted or have terribly rude comments about how that particular quote has terrible grammar, syntax, spelling, or punctuation. Even if that is true, commenting doesn't really do anything, and downvoting will get it removed. To me, this is not usually necessary, especially if the quote is otherwise good or inspiring. My solution is, of course, the edit button. With a few keystrokes, you (yes, you) can edit the quote to make it good!

- Sleep (excerpt)
The evening hangs beneath the moon, a silver thread on darkened dune. With closing eyes and resting head, I know that sleep is coming soon. Upon my pillow safe in bed, a thousand pictures fill my head. I cannot sleep, my mind's a-flight, and yet my limbs seem made of lead. If there are noises in the night, a frightening shadow, flickering light, as I surrender unto sleep, where clouds of dream give second sight.

- Super Metroid monologue (excerpt)
The scientists' findings were astounding! They discovered that the powers of the Metroid might be harnessed for the good of civilization! Satisfied that all was well, I left the station to seek a new bounty to hunt. But I had hardly gone beyond the asteroid belt when I picked up a distress signal. Ceres station was under attack!

- How I Grew Up
I mean, I've always felt like a lot of people's misconceptions of me have to do with how I grew up. I grew up poor, and I grew up rich. I think some people who have never met me have a misconception that when I was living with my father when he was successful, that I was somehow adversely affected by his success or the money he had and was making at the time.

First, you take the graham. You stick the chocolate on the graham. Then, you roast the mallow. When the mallow's flaming, you stick it on the chocolate and cover it with the other end. Then, you scarf.
