To celebrate the fact that i'm now properly quotable, i've decided to start a contest based on quotes(famous? Infamous? Rumour?)

Post a quote(means only one quote is allowed) from anyone(E.g. Sir Isaac Newton, Neil Armstrong or even Albert Einstein) and the best quote(result as determined by me) wins 30k!

An example of a quote(my personal favourite):

"Live or D*e
Make your choice."

~Jigsaw(Jon Kramer) via Billy the puppet


Contest ends on Sep 17, when the clock strikes Midnite EST.

Results will be out latest by Sep 18 11.59 pm JP Time(Us-10.59 am, JP 11.59 Pm & SE Asia-Cn/My/Sg/Ph- 10.59 pm.)

For other timezones, use:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html



Happy quoting! :D

Note: Contest Prize has been Tripled!!! And deadline extended to September 17! :). There will be no further deadline extensions even if i choose to quadruple the prize-[You'll never know anything could happen](was 10k initially at the start.)

Additional info:
You may edit your post at any point of time as long as the edit is made before the contest deadline ^^

Awesome quotes keep them coming guys...

Lol@Lava but that's too short to be a quote. Quote(s) consists of at least one sentence usually.

I mentioned "post a quote" which generally refers to posting only one quote but since someone posted a few quotes(only one was counted anyways).

I'll make the rules clearer. Updated op.
