“An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while a pessimist sees only the red stoplight. . . The truly wise person is colorblind.” - Albert Schweitzer
“Yosemite Valley, to me, is always a sunrise, a glitter of green and golden wonder in a vast edifice of stone and space.” - Ansel Adams
“On a traffic light green means go and yellow means yield, but on a banana it's just the opposite. Green means hold on, yellow means go ahead, and red means where the hell did you get that banana at...” - Mitch Hedberg
But my favorite:
“Never stay up on the barren heights of cleverness, but come down into the green valleys of silliness.” - Ludwig Wittgenstein
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
"It's not easy being green". And you're so lazy!
Yes. No. She wasn't talking to you. Well if she's talking to you she's talking to me. Not necessarily. Oh yes necessarily. No, you're just green with envy because she likes me better than you. Oh very droll, very droll - I like the way you slipped in the "green" thing there. Yes it was pretty nifty wasn't it? That was sarcasm. Oh.... what color is that?
Avitable stole my quote. :(
favorite green quote? hmmmm, i'll have to think on that one...
What does "pinch proof" mean?
How about something from Angel:
Lorne: "Misses her little green boo, does she?"
Or something a bit more classic:
"Men like my father cannot die. They are with me still, real in memory as they were in flesh, loving and beloved forever. How green was my valley then." - How Green Was My Valley
Annd the winner is B.E. Earl!!! You win... a dose of self righteousness and exactly one (misguided) statement regarding Buffy's superiority over Angel without comment from me.
P.S. Adam, are you serious? This coming from the guy who posted Bizkit on his blog the other day?!!
I expect more after you come back from your self-imposed Monday Internet hiatus.
"Expected." Hahahahaha! Gee whiz, DAD, I'll try to do better next time.
"Expect" Before you correct me grammar nazi.
bring on the green beer, and I will come up with all the green quotes you want.
Oh, and I am sure my guest poster, Colleen, did not mind being called a "hot poodle". She probably enjoyed the compliment! Come by any time and call anyone you see on my blog hot. They will love you forever.
(but Syb is totally hot, isn't she?)
This was a contest?
Google told me that my favorite quote involving the word "green" is : "If your knees aren't green by the end of the day, you ought to seriously re-examine your life." Bill Watterson (Calvin & Hobbes)
@mielikki: She *IS* hot. She's my blog wife, you know.
@Kiefer and Emo: Everything is a contest, isn't it? No, actually, I just love Angel and Earl quoted it which made me feel like giving him some sort of award
@Sheila: As if I did NOT google those quotes.
"Sarah I know I'm Irish because my snot is green." My god-daughter last year on St. Paddy's day.
Still cracks me up.
"In God We Trust"
I see that in GREEN PRINT everytime I spend an AMERICAN dollar.
I can't believe that this one hasn't been posted yet:
"The grass is always GREENER on the other side of the fence."
That's my favorite.
Avitable stole mine! I love Kermit the Frog!
J.
Yeah, Adam stole it from me too- I knew there was no way I would be the first to say it!
xo
Hmmm, I seem to be late to the party as all the ones I had were already posted. I've got nothing!
Anyways, cute post and I don't think lazy at all.
Hmmm, a green quote. Let's see...
"Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac... It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!"
- Carl Spackler (aka Bill Murray), "Caddyshack"
Yes, you may smack me now.
kermit wins this one...it's not easy being green.
or late. not easy being several days late to this party. sorry!
"I ain't arguin' wid ya, I'm 'green wid ya"
- whall when he's tipsy.
