'Celebrity' Quote Game

Dreamer128 · 02-23-2004, 10:14 AM

The rules:

-You choose a rather well known person. This can be anyone. From Plato to Madonna.
-You post one or two of the most famous quotes of this person.
-The first person who manages to guess who you had in mind, gets the post the next set of quotes.
-No posting before you have had confirmation that your answer is indeed the right one.

Here is the first series of quotes:

"One should always play fairly when one has the winning cards."

"I think that God in creating Man somewhat overestimated his ability."

Should be easy enough. Good luck [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I'd have to say Oscar Wilde.

I'd have to say you're right [img]smile.gif[/img]

WillowIX · 02-23-2004, 01:42 PM

Ok then I get to go correct?

"Nothing will come of nothing. Speak again."

To make this a tiny bit harder I want the name of the character saying this line. [img]smile.gif[/img] Shouldn't be too hard.

Would that be King Lear, in the play of the same name?

Damn, I knew all of them, just saw the thread too late. Nice idea, anyway, Dreamer!

Bungleau · 02-23-2004, 05:10 PM

Okay, how about this one:

I never make stupid mistakes. Only very, very clever ones.

Hey, something else I know. 'Tis John Peel, who also said "I've obviously offended lots of people. Let's move on!"

Bungleau · 02-24-2004, 09:32 AM

I'll give you that. John Peel put those words in the mouth of the Doctor, in Timewyrm: Genesis.

Your go!
