Quotations Weblog

When I tell people I run a quotations website, almost all of them ask “what are some of your favorite quotations?” I always have trouble answering this question—the real answer is that if I could choose just a few favorites, I wouldn’t need this huge website to keep track of them all. I had a short list of favorites back in high school, but since then it’s grown into the website you see here, including nearly 3,000 of my “favorites” in my personal collection.

Nevertheless, there are some quotations I enjoy more than others, so I’m going to start highlighting them in posts like this one, with a few favorites from an author or subject.

This weeks entry: Douglas Adams was probably my favorite writer in high school, and he’s still one of my favorites although he died in 2001. His Hitchhiker’s Guide series is some very funny science fiction, and I enjoy his writing style even more than the characters and plots. Here are a few of my favorite Douglas Adams quotes:
