Below are some of the legendary quotes of Bill Watterson, the man who created all time great comic strip "Calvin and Hobbes". Bill watterson like Douglas Adams is one of the few writers whose quotes are full of wit and humour and yet so close to reality that they have something for everyone. They are the quotes which will resonate in everyone's heart. I am putting some of the quotes of Bill here. In the next blog, I am going to put Douglas Adams' quotes.
A real job is a job you hate.
Reality continues to ruin my life.
From now on, I'll connect the dots my own way.

Heck, what's a little extortion among friends?
I find my life is a lot easier the lower I keep everyone's expectations.
I know the world isn't fair, but why isn't it ever unfair in my favor?
I liked things better when I didn't understand them.
I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each other's dreams, we can play together all night.
I thought my life would seem more interesting with a musical score and a laugh track.
I'm not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information.
If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I'll bet they'd live a lot differently.
It's not denial. I'm just selective about the reality I accept.
It's surprising how hard we'll work when the work is done just for ourselves.
Know what's weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change. But pretty soon, everything's different.
Mothers are the necessity of invention.
Nothing helps a bad mood like spreading it around.
Often it takes some calamity to make us live in the present. Then suddenly we wake up and see all the mistakes we have made.
Shutting off the thought process is not rejuvenating; the mind is like a car battery - it recharges by running.
So, what's it like in the real world? Well, the food is better, but beyond that, I don't recommend it.
Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.
Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we think faster than we speak. Probably so we can think twice.
Talking with you is sort of the conversational equivalent of an out of body experience.
That's the whole problem with science. You've got a bunch of empiricists trying to describe things of unimaginable wonder.
The problem with the future is that it keeps running into the present.
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
The world of a comic strip ought to be a special place with its own logic and life... I don't want the issue of Hobbes's reality settled by a doll manufacturer.
There is not enough time to do all the nothing we want to do.
Things are never quite as scary when you've got a best friend.
We all have different desires and needs, but if we don't discover what we want from ourselves and what we stand for, we will live passively and unfulfilled.
We don't devote enough scientific research to finding a cure for jerks.

Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?
