Hi there bookworm200+. That quote would have to be made by Captain Kirk wouldn't it? Not sure though, I am more of a Star Wars man.

How about....

AND AS THE HOUR APPROACHED FOR THE EXECUTION, IN HIS OWN MIND, COLLINS BECAME BOTH THE EXECUTIONER AND THE VICTIM. HE WOULD PACE UP AND DOWN, TRANSFORMED IN ALMOST A KIND OF EXORCISM WHEN HE KNEW HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING SOMEONE'S LIFE.

Actually it was said by Captain Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek: Voyager. Nice try though! I'll work out that other quote when I have some spare time.

P.S. Star Wars. Really!?

hahaha, Captain Kirk and Spock are pretty much the only characters I know from Star Trek. Yep I like Star Wars much better than Star Trek. I can see millions of trekkies(is that the right name) dropping their keyboards, Ipads, lap tops etc, in shock.

Yes "trekkies" is the correct term for hardcore fans.
Your previous quote was said(or written)by Liam Neeson!

Talk about pressure, I do know this one so whatever you do, do not kill yourself.

The quote was made by Mark Twain. It is really strange because I was going to post that exact quote about 3 or 4 posts ago.

How about....

A MAN WHO STANDS FOR NOTHING WILL FALL FOR ANYTHING.

@Bighuey

Hey there Fran, what an apt quote for the state of the economy in your part of the world these days. I do believe that your quote was made by Rockefeller.

How about....

AM I NOT DESTROYING MY ENEMIES WHEN I MAKE FRIENDS OF THEM?

Hey there Fran, that was a hard one, but I found it on google. Your quote is made by Cecil Rhodes.

How about....

AT HIS BEST, MAN IS THE NOBLEST OF ALL ANIMALS; SEPERATED FROM LAW AND JUSTICE HE IS THE WORST.

That was Aristotle I do believe

Now see how you go with this one

That was definitely Picasso.

Nice one RuqeeD, I love that quote and it was made by Bill Cosby.

How about....
