Here's an easier one:

Isn't it awfully nice to have a penis?
Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong?
It's swell to have a stiffy.
It's divine to own a dick,
From the tiniest little tadger
To the world's biggest prick

I believe that quote was from Plato, a Philosopher who was born in 427 BC and died in 347 BC.
Well, at least I think it was?

Well what about this one:

"A man who dares to waste one hour of time
has not discovered the value of life"

The Crow
the good one

back in a minute
here we go

And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

That one made me think! Actually, I found it in an electronic back issue of PC Magazine, it's Gene Spafford, in 1992!

Krets: Sorry to confuse, but the quote in my sig wasn't the quote, it was the saying above it: The son of a duck is a floater.

And yes, Fight Club was great...One of those movies where I rented it not expecting much and ended up buying it.

Rameses' quote is from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

and since I don't know it and would like to hear the answer, I'll repeat Krets' quote:

"My job consists of basically masking my contempt for the assholes in charge and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room to jerk off while I fantasize about a life that doesn't so closely resemble hell."
