I think the actual quote is "Stupid is as Stupid does."\n\nOnce you put the "as" in there it is much more obvious that the phrase means our stupidity is defined by our actions.

I have not seen the movie so I am not certain what specific quotation you are seeking, but in researching this answer, have watched the movie trailer, I know I will have to see this film. \nIn the trailer she says "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure..." now I am searching for the author of that quote (insert eye-rolling smiley here!!)

niiiiiiiiiiiiice quote.  I like it a lot.  I'll have to get that book.\n\nBasically, it says that if you are the type of person to let things roll over and over and over in your head without ever coming to some sort of resolution, you will always get behind in everything you really want to do in life.\n\nIn terms of respect, there are a couple of thoughts on this.  How will you respect yourself if you don't respect others?  How will you be perceived as an honorable person if you let others run over you or you straddle the fence on important issues all the time?  \n\nI disagree with one statement.  "You have to demand respect in this world,......"  Actually, I don't demand respect.  I don't have to because I can look at you or speak to you in such a way that the respect comes natural.  \n\nI command respect by my mere presence.

It's a quote from "Hamlet" by Shakespeare.\n\nWhat seems crazy at first glance (madness) may have a logical pattern or reason (method).

I don't know who said it, or the actual quote but it went along the lines of, "If you have 1 true friend, then you have succeeded in life".  I have plenty of true friends and I already feel like my life has mattered (whether for the better or worst I cannot say).  I remember a discussion we had in a class once in which a teacher said, no matter what we do, we will not matter in the large scale of things.  I disagreed of course and stated of course we change history.  For example, what if the man who invented the atom bomb were never born?  What if the people who researched penicillian had different paths and what if certain events, such as a teacher telling a student to get back in line and the student following through never occured?  Had that teacher not been there, the students' world could be very different.\n\nSo, I think everyone's life does matter in some way shape or form, unless you have no interaction with anyone at anytime your life does matter.  And even if you don't, in some way you are still a part of the earth, even when you die and become the ground again.

"Hell isn’t a place. This life is hell." \n\nSkeptics who say this are trying to dismiss the reality of hell. They might like to think that life as we know it couldn’t get any worse, but the sufferings in this life will be heaven compared to the suffering in the next life—for those who die in their sins. This life is the closest thing to hell that Christians will ever know, and the closest thing to heaven that sinners will ever know.

I believe the meaning behind your quote is that people "grow" (mentally/emotionally) from sorrowful experiences.  If you consider the notion, sorrowful (or sad) experiences are those which we contemplate the most.  Therefore the only way to get past them is to learn from them, thus leaving us in a different place.

"Enjoy and live life to the fullest." I believe that we should follow this quote because life is too short and nobody knows when we are going to die so while we're still here in this world, enjoy it with family and friends but not to the extent of hurting or doing harm to other people.

When things are fighting for their own supreme survival, anything goes.  If you've got a knife stashed in your pocket, and you agree to a fistfight to the death, when you start losing, the knife is brought out.  The quote is saying that everything is tolerable in the aim of survival.  Like in the movie Space Odyssey, the artificial intelligence Al had no real soul.  It just did what it felt it needed to preserve itself, and so killed the crew because they were going to turn him off.  As in war, mustard gas, dehumanization, and torture are all forms of self-preservation.  Kill them before they kill us.  Make them fear us.  Etc.\n\nThe love half of it is kind of ambiguous to me.

Not me. But it reminds me of something I saw in MAD magazine once. Here it is:\n\nThere are two thing to worry about: \nEither you are well or you are sick. \n\nIf you are well there is nothing to worry about. \nIf you are sick there are two things to worry about. \n\nEither you will get well or you will die. \nIf you get well theres nothing to worry about. \nIf you die theres only two thing to worry about. \n\nEither you go to heaven or hell. \nIf you go to heaven theres nothing to worry about. \n\nBut if you go to hell you will be so darn busy shaking hands with your friends you wont have time to worry." \n\n\nHope that helps ya!!

Ακόμα δεν απέθανα κι ανάψαν τα κεριά μου.\n\nThe literal meaning for this is - your family has prepared for your eventual death though you are still living.\n\nIt's a very interesting Greek Proverb.
