Doesn't matter what it's from. Just your favorite quote of all time.
This one brings back good memories of childhood:
"Disturb not the harmony of fire, ice, or lightning, lest these titans wreak destruction upon the world in which they clash. Though the water's great guardian shall arise to quell the fighting, alone its song will fail, thus the earth shall turn to ash. Oh Chosen One, into thine hands bring together all three. Their treasures combined tame the Beast of the Sea."
-Pokemon 2000: The Power of One

I'M RAGING SO HARD! Quote is a verb, and not a noun!11!!!1!!!1
I felt like getting that out for a second. Apparently, my Western Literature teacher drills it in like mad that every time she hears this misconception, she throws a fit.
Anyways, favorite quotation of all time?

It's only a misconception when the majority think it is. I've never heard "QUOTE IS A VERB" rants before. :|
You should teach your teacher about evolution of languages.

"DOLIST is similar to Perl's foreach or Python's for. Java added a similar kind of loop construct with the "enhanced" for loop in Java 1.5, as part of JSR-201. Notice what a difference macros make. A Lisp programmer who notices a common pattern in their code can write a macro to give themselves a source-level abstraction of that pattern. A Java programmer who notices the same pattern has to convince Sun that this particular abstraction is worth adding to the language. Then Sun has to publish a JSR and convene an industry-wide "expert group" to hash everything out. That process--according to Sun--takes an average of 18 months. After that, the compiler writers all have to go upgrade their compilers to support the new feature. And even once the Java programmer's favorite compiler supports the new version of Java, they probably still can't use the new feature until they're allowed to break source compatibility with older versions of Java. So an annoyance that Common Lisp programmers can resolve for themselves within five minutes plagues Java programmers for years." - Peter Seibel, Practical Common Lisp.
