"Passion has little to do with euphoria and everything to do with patience. It is not about feeling good. It is about endurance. Like patience, passion comes from the same Latin root: pati. It does not mean to flow with exuberance. It means to suffer." -Mark Z. Danielewski, Author of "House of Leaves" One of my favorite badass crazy authors. He's like the +1 version of the write of fight club pretty much.
Holy crap, don't mean to derail but I read that book and ...wow >_> that was creepy.

Another one I know is "Nothing is impossible, only improbable." Not sure where that one came from or if I made it up myself though.

Yeah he makes some crazy stuff.

If you put that into a hex to audio converter you get the first like 13 seconds of one of his sisters songs.

"I don't believe in an afterlife, so I don't have to
spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For
whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be
even worse" --Isaac Asimov

"Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes."
-Benjamin Franklin


"The scientific man does not aim at an immediate result. He does not expect that his advanced ideas will be readily taken up. His work is like that of the planter — for the future. His duty is to lay the foundation for those who are to come, and point the way. He lives and labors and hopes."
-Nikola Tesla
