"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

While these went tear-jerkers to me, I found them pretty sad and left me with an empty feeling for a few days...

Star Trek II (when Spock dies - I was young and not much of trek fan, but it still saddened me to see that back in the day)

The Sixth Sense  (I knew about halfway through the movie what was up, but still was sad when they confirmed it for me)

Glad Dark_4ce mentioned Braveheart - dunno how this thread went as long as it did without that being noted.

The Green Mile - great bit of writing from a usual horror-thriller guy

Aside from Leonardo DeCaprio, Titanic was sad, even though we all knew the boat sank at the end.  :P  Seeing Leoboy slip down into the deep blue actually made me feel better though.  Go figure.


I had one more in my head but as of writing this, it eludes me.  I probably will post it later when my brain fart fades... :mad:


EDIT:  haha - I just noticed my 'registered' date with this message board.  2 total posts in 33 1/2 years.  (My first post was 2 years before my birth oddly enough...)  :rolleyes:
