Random OFMD Quotes I am Constantly Saying
In honor of season 2 of Our Flag Means Death Here is a list of quotes I am constantly saying in no specific order:
"Edward Teach, born on a beach"
"I actually think I'm just so so, but I've decided to carry myself like I'm cute"
"God damn it" (specifically when Jim says it after seeing Lucius on the beach by their clothes)
"Fab"
"Now that's a fuckery"
Please add any lines that you quote/like :)

I've never cried in front of anyone. It's a kind of undressing and I don't want anyone to know I've got the same skin, that it gets burnt, it gets cut and the scars remain. It's like giving a knife to someone and hoping that they won't use it.

Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.
- Daniel Webster (1782-1852) American statesman

true, but i want to ride with you on dragonback and eat only cake, and oh how i love being a woman, and if i loved you less i might be able to talk about it more, and please tell her that i will never forget the sound of her voice calling my name, and please let her know that she lives in my heart, and everywhere i go i see her face, and that grief and love are sisters, and Please Linger Near The Door and please forget your scarf in my life and come back later for it, and please don’t ever become a stranger, your braids like a pattern, come live with me and we could be pirates and then you won’t have to cry, and you never have any friends later on like the ones you have when you’re twelve, jesus, does anyone? and i loved you and you love me the same, the rest is just confetti. and i cant carry it for you but i can carry you , and a childhood dotted with bodies. “let them go, let them be ghosts.” “no,” i said. “make them stay. make them stone.”

“We began like a fire. There was nothing slow or controlled about us. On Sunday, we didn’t know each other. Monday, we met and suddenly colors look different and I wear a ring on my finger that he gave me while down on one knee. Everything has been fast, a hurry to catch up and make up for all the time we’ve spent not knowing each other. We’re the fire that consumes.”

"It is in the nature of man to betray. Our very system of governance is based on the concept. Seeing to the many too often requires turning one's back on the few. Addressing the greater good so frequently involves the casting aside of lesser needs, and those in said need. There is no real choice in it.
Betrayal, in the end, is more often than not a body's greatest tool of survival..."
- Dr. Everett Weaver, Ph.D. (23rd century philosopher, Mars), Warformed: Stormweaver #1 (aka Iron Prince)

no matter what difficulties people face, they will always have the strength to overcome them. It just takes heart. And if the chair can change someone’s heart, it clearly has its purpose.

I inherited my mother's nose and the colour of her anger - crimson with a hint of green. She gave me her pearls and wrapped them with her sadness, and we called it a perfect birthday.

"...one gradually formulates one's religion, be it what it may. A person has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification." - D.H. Lawrence

How I love you has nothing to do with how you love me but how I treat you has everything to do with how you treat me.

"Do you understand, mortal?" Eanrin said. "We Faerie know it's the spirit that counts, and all else is malleable. Beauty or ugliness; brawn or frailty; height or lack thereof—these appearances can be exchanged with scarcely a thought! But the truth. now, that's another issue. The truth of the thing, the person behind what you perceive with any of your paltry five senses…Creature of dust, it's the truth that counts! And you'll rarely find more truth than in Faerie tales." With those words, the golden man dwindled into the golden cat, and try as he might, the Chronicler could perceive him as nothing else. But he was still Eanrin, and he smiled, pleased with himself. "That wasn't a half-bad monologue. Do you find yourself inspired to new heights of ambition?" he asked.
~ Dragonwitch by Anne Elisabeth Stengl
