The Complete Quotefile

This is the compiled version of the 4 years of quotefiles I kept while at Cornell, and beyond. It'll continue to be updated should anything funny be said, but I don't expect as large of a volume as when I was in school. This should suffice.

Disclaimer: You might not agree with all of the trains of thought here. You may not find these funny. You may find them moronic and rather generic. You may not like the people that said them, what they represent, what they do, who their friends are, or even what they wear. I'm not doing this because they're all funny (they aren't), or because they all make everyone look dumb (they don't) - I'm doing this because it's a nice way to remember anecdotes that would otherwise slip by the cracks of my memory.
Disclaimer 2: Quotes may be mildly edited for content and readability.
