Sarcastic Quotes

Yeah I'm a selfish bastard
But at least I'm not alone

You know I am not a champion of marriage. The real drawback to marriage is that it makes one unselfish. And unselfish people are colourless. They lack individuality. Still, there are certain temperaments that marriage makes more complex. They retain their egotism, and add to it many other egos. They are forced to have more than one life. They become more highly organised, and to be highly organised is, I should fancy, the object of man's existence. Besides, every experience is of value, and, whatever one may say against marriage, it is certainly an experience.

Now you know, I'm needy.
Lay them down easy.
Talk to me
In your own language, please.

No woman can compete with Benny's love for himself.

I mean, God, it's the end of the world and I'm still 15 minutes late. I can hear my father say it now. I can hear him say, "Flaky and irresponsible," and he's right. How could I do this? I put my energy in the wrong places, I give my time to the wrong people. I mean, when I think of all the... All the holidays I didn't
spend with my mum and dad to be with some guy I used to know.

Sad Quotes

Everyone in this world like this – blind, impulsive, selfish, unaware of what they want or should do. Everyone’s just a pathetic actor, a dumb puppet!

But now instead there’s all this talk of democracy. You hear it whenever people want to be selfish, whenever they want to forget obligations.

All people are just tools. No matter what means and what sacrifices I will achieve my goal. In this world, only victory matters. And I'm ready to do anything to win!
