Hey, if we’re allowed to quote our own signatures, then I’ve got the best: “I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, ‘The Beatles did’.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Timequake, 1997

Well, it’s obviously a memorable quotation if you bothered to put it in your sig. I quoted mine mainly because I won’t have it forever.

I don’t know if here is your “why”, but that’s certainly your “how” @Ahhh Girl. They did it for me when I was sixteen, they still do it now.

The first time I saw that movie as a kid, it gave me the creeps. Many years later I watched it as an adult. It gave me the creeps again. Great movie.
