Day 5: Your Favorite Quote

This is a tough one. Yes, tougher than the one about my favorite book. I like quotes, but I've never had one single favorite. Here's a few:

"What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?"
-Rob in High Fidelity

"Important things are inevitably cliché."
-Chuck Klosterman

"It's really not hard to keep your dignity and sign to a major label...Most people don't have any dignity in the first place."
-Kurt Cobain As quoted in Sounds (October, 1990)

"I prefer women's company to men's. Men are very narrow and conditioned to behave in a certain way. Women are cooler about stuff."
-Noel Fielding

"Dear diary, my teen-angst bullshit now has a body count. Everybody's sad...but it's kind of a weird kind of sad. Suicide gave Heather depth, Kurt a soul, and Ram a brain. I don't know what it's given me, but I have no control over myself when I'm with J.D. Are we going to prom or to hell?"
-Winona Ryder in Heathers

"Adolescence is a marketing tool."
-Frances McDormand in Almost Famous
