Good bye old WoT quote, hello new one! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I really did like this one, though. Love those prophecies.

Oh, yeah, I still have my army recruitment link... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

*sniff* Perhaps I'll resurrect it someday...

I just killed off my Matrix quotes... for a while. They'll be back. For now it's Douglas Adams for me... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Edit: Nah. We now have a new dead: I love the quote, but I just felt like killing it... *curves hand protectively over axe* [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I haven't had this sig for an overly long time, but it's time to change. Farewell, sweet words!
Peace

I'd only had these ones for a short time, but the Moxy Fruvous one is part of one of my favourite songs:

RIP: The second quote was HP 5... once again, rest in peace. (Or rot in pieces?)

~Menelien

Time to lay to rest another old favorite...

Thanks Phantom, for letting me borrow it. I'll surely ressurrect it sometime in the future. But for now, me and my Shelley are ok together [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img].

My old sig featured a haunting melody that helped get our choir straight ones for the UIL competition:
Now I have an excerpt from a book I'm reading called The Cat with an Emerald Eye. I think it's a little witty. And "Purr of Power" is the phrase of the day!
I also got a pic to match. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

And now I lay this one to rest - it doesn't have any sort of sentimental value, just that I've had it for a very very long time.

Of all the Great Ones who dwell in this world the Elves hold Varda in most reverence and love. Elbereth they name her, and they call upon her name out of the shadows of Middle-earth, and uplift it in song at the rising of the waters.

Still, time for a change.

Now I lay this one to rest. I liked it, it served me well, and is with its ancestors. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust...alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. Ok, enough.
Peace

...I said I wasn't going to cry, I said I wasn't going to cry [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] ...

[img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I think I'm going to change my avatar too.

I am, at long last, throwing off the tyranny of my ruling quote even as my forefathers did 227 years ago on the fourth of July!

Okay, so my quote wasn't exactly tyrannous. And I'm not exactly throwing it off, just trading it in for a new one by the same people and in the same song. Here it is anyway:
Hmm, maybe I'll follow the example of MLD and change my avatar too. Although, then I won't know it's me posting, so maybe not.

I just remembered something that used to be in my signature before the 3-line limit was set: It was a dumb inside joke, but I have to get it down while I remember it -- it's too funny to forget. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I know exactly how you feel! That same thought has kept me from changing my signature, too (I always look for the word 'Galadriel' at the end to find my posts).

Had this one for a while, and rather liked it, but all good things must pass...

Also, another bit I had for a while:

And...
Now changed for my opinion on life. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

My siggy that I just killed:

From Monty Python, of course. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm finally retiring my sig (sniff, sniff)). It's the one I started with and I think I shall miss it. I'm replacing it with one of my favorite quotes.

*audible sigh* RIP, my friend. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Swan song,
~Menelien

Come to think of it… I actually have never changed my sig.. I don’t know why…

RIP, all my old siggys:

I'm going to end this post with the newset addition to my sig, a quote from Faust.

Quite appropriate for a graveyard, no?

I lay to rest my "hope"less signature quotes: I have chosen something a little more "hope"ful.

Mine that I had for about an hour:

Alas, as amusing as my old sig was, it was too long, so I lay it to rest in both its forms, way too long and just too long, here:

Too long: Maedhros bent over his father's lifeless body and heard an echoing voice: "This elf will explode in 5...4…3…2…1…BOOM!" And behold, the Sons of Fëanor were covered in a black dust and their father spontaneously burst into flame and disappeared entirely!" --from "Of Fëanor, the Exploding Elf"

and Way too long: "Maedhros bent over the lifeless body of his father and heard a small, echoing voice from deep within Fëanor's chest, as if Mandos himself spoke from afar: "This elf will explode in 5...4…3…2…1…BOOM!" And behold, a great noise overcame the Sons of Fëanor, and they were covered in a black dust. They stood silent as their father spontaneously burst into flame and disappeared entirely!" --from the alternate Quenta Silmarillion, "Of Fëanor, the Exploding Elf"

And now for something completely different...

Cheers,
Lyta

I love this song from the movie Henry V, but I think I've had it quite long enough:

Now for a quote I ran across in my Bible reading two nights ago. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I really liked this one; it was pretty cool. And quite appropriate for the Downs.

I fled, and cried out Death;
Hell trembled at the hideous name, and sighed
From all her caves, and back resounded Death.

I lay to rest "Life is like an analogy" for my newest, which is from The Raven, o'course.

Doesn't somebody already have that quote in their sig? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Anyhow, I plan to kill off this sig within the day, or possibly tomorrow: Swan song,
-Menelien

Rot in pieces, love.

I get tired of these things fast...
Why, Monty Python, of course!

Oh, the horror! I've changed my signature. Here's my beloved year-and-a-half-old sig, which I'm sure I'll be returning to shortly: Rest well, my darling.

I hope not! I haven't seen it around anywhere.

Yes, somebody does. This took me ages to find, so be very grateful. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Eruwen's sig. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Swan song,
-Menelien

Well then, I guess you could say I lay it to rest.

Great minds think alike, I suppose. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lovely quote, lovelier song...rest in peace. I'll probably resurrect this one soon enough.
Peace

That signature was from a song called We Die Young, by Alice in Chains. The song was about gang violence.

I knew this one wouldn't last long...
Peace

Good grief...I just can't seem to keep a good sig anymore. Ah well, it's good in it's own right. Farewell.
Peace

Wise words from Gwarn the loremaster... RIP
EDIT: Is it just me or does it take some time before the sig changes in your posts when you change it in your profile?

[ August 06, 2003: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

As far as I know, the sig changes in all of your old posts as soon as you make your first post with your new sig, if that makes any sense.

I shall lay this one to rest...

Here's one recently discarded: I still like it but I felt the need for something more sing song.
Sadly, I cannot remember right now the exact wording of my first signature, so I can give it a proper burial. Sorry. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
