After five years of transcribing quotes, it’s time to go public with the hidden genius of my friends, family, coworkers, acquaintances and strangers by creating this site that features a Common Man/Woman/Shim Quote of the Day. From the insightful to the indecipherable, these comments and quips are worth being shared with our fellow masses.
SAMPLES:
Barnes, on smashed sunglasses: I am crushed; a broken spirit with nothing to hold onto but my broken dreams of sight without being bombarded by millions of ninja gamma rays.
Carey, on high school: I was voted “Most Likely To Become A Lawyer” AND “Most Likely To Become A Rapper,” which begs the question: a rapping lawyer?
Smitty: I do a lot of things the government wouldn’t recommend. Why would I stop at something you wouldn’t recommend?
Heather: He showed up at my door shit-faced and crying, all listening to Lionel Richie and James Taylor and shit, then tried to make a move on me.
BONUS FEATURES:
Uncommon quotes from blogs, websites, movies, TV shows and my dog-eared paperbacks.
