"Norman Dukes".

we didn't do senior quotes. i wish we did.


i'm not sure what i would've quoted back then. probably nirvana. or the beastie boys. or the catcher in the rye.

if i were to do one now....it'd probably be:
"for every lie i unlearn
i learn something new
i sing sometimes for the war that i fight
'cause every tool is a weapon -
if you hold it right."

or

"so i walk like i'm on a mission
cuz that's the way i groove
i got more and more to do
i got less and less to prove
it took me too long to realize
that i don't take good pictures
cuz i have the kind of beauty
that moves"

Alright let's take a vote...


Should I do:


"A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast’n’bulbous...got me?" – Captain Beefheart

or

"Smile on Mighty Jesus, spinal meningitis got me down" - Ween

L, yeah! I quoted Pink Floyd, and Crack the Sky, and Blue Oyster Cult, and...Jeebus, I'm old.

No. "Dust in the Wind", by Kansas.

... So cliche that no one will want to look stupid and do it (because they'll be thinking that everyone will be). So, you'll be unique among your peers.

or how about:
waiting for the time when I can finally say
that this has all been wonderful but now i'mm on my way
~phish

No, please don't. That's the one that all the JAPpy girls used because they knew the song from summer camp.

I quoted:
"She started dancing to that fine fine music/You know her life was saved by rock and roll"
- VU

We didn't have individual quotes. Just wrote down a bunch of them and turn them into the yearbook staff.

ha. i only mentioned that quote because i'd suspect it's probably a highly quoted quote for senior quotes.

quotes quotes quotes.

I don't even remember mine

Sticking with Ween:


"Baby, baby, baby bitch, fuck you you stankin ass ho"



Can't go wrong with some Dylan:

"Money doesn't talk, it swears"

"In ceremonies of the horsemen, even the pawn must hold a grudge."

"He not busy being born is busy dying. "

"Don't follow leaders, watch your parkin' meters. "

Though the Masters make the rules, for both the wisemen, and the fools, I got nothing, ma, to live up to.

(I used this on the cover page of my portfolio in college)

Even though it was 1995, during graduation, the class president, used quotes from Van Halen's "Dreams" in his speech.

"And thats...........................what dreams......................are made of"

"So dry your eyes blah, blah, blah:

My yearbook quote was "Hopes to work in the music industry or at least find a better job then Burger King".


*life dreams fufilled!*

I distinctly remember writing to one girl, "...now you've a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky..."

She started sorta stalking me, and I'm not sure if it was for good or for bad.

"I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to boast, but I'm intercontinental when I eat french toast."

Yea, I was real cool.

I asked for this entire thing to go under my name, but for some odd reason the editor claimed there wasn't space:

Last night I was cool
at the pool hall
Held the table for eleven games
Nothing was easier
than the first seven
I beat a woman with varicose veins.
She stopped to see
herself in the mirror
Fix her hair and hide heir veins
And she lost the game.
Next day I went to the dentist
He pulled some teeth
and I lost some blood
We'd like to thank you
for the cards you sent us
My wives and I were all choked up.
I recall how Caesar and Cleo
Made love in the Milky Way
They needed boats
and armies to get there
I know there's a better way.
I saw the movie and I read the book
But when it happened to me
I sure was glad I had what it took
To get away.
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
I'm making another delivery
Of chemicals and sacred roots
I'll hold what you have to give me
But I'll use what I have to use.
The lasers are in the lab
The old man
is dressed in white clothes
Everybody says he's mad
No one knows
the things that he knows.
No one knows, no one knows
No one knows, no one knows
I'm sleepin' in every hallway
I just can't accept the stares
I'm using too many covers
I'm warm now so I don't care.
I'm thinkin' of no one in my mind
Sedan delivery
is a job I know I'll keep
It sure was hard to find.
Hard to find. hard to find
Hard to find. hard to find
