Need an extra boost of confidence to face your nemesis? Need to get in the mood for a kid-free weekend trip? Here are some of my favorite ego-boosting, up-to-no-good, rebel-without-a-cause quotes to motivate you!
“I aim to misbehave.”
Mal in Serenity.
“It’s time to kick ass and chew bubble gum… and I’m all outta gum.”
Duke Nukem, references to They Live.
“Are you always a smartass?”
“Nope. Sometimes I’m asleep.”

“I’d call you a genius, except I’m in the room.”
The Doctor in “The Age of Steel”, Doctor Who
“Like every other creature on the face of the earth, Godfrey was, by birthright, a stupendous badass, albeit in the somewhat narrow technical sense that he could trace his ancestry back up a long line of slightly less highly evolved stupendous badasses to that first self-replicating gizmo—which, given the number and variety of its descendants, might justifiably be described as the most stupendous badass of all time. Everyone and everything that wasn’t a stupendous badass was dead.”
Neal Stephenson, Cryptonomicon
“Always listen to experts. They’ll tell you what can’t be done, and why. Then do it.”
