Everyone has their own favourite quotes, but no-one ever mentions quotes that they don't like.

They say you can tell a lot about someone's personality by the quotes that they like, but I guess the same can be said about quotes they dislike.

Apart from my car-insurance quotes each year, my least favourite quote is

[I]"It is better to have loved and lost than never loved at all"[I]

I really dislike this. Mainly because I think it's not true at all. Most heartbreak is worst than the positive loved-up feeling you get from being in love. In fact, the very feeling of love is sometimes quite negative.

Maybe I am looking at this quote the wrong way, or just through a singleton's eyes, but either way it is one of the quotes that I hate people throwing my direction.

How about yours?

The quote you have given is actually rather a good one as it is true. Despite your bad experiences recently you can't honestly tell me the 'good times' wern't worth it. Plus it's character building :)

The only time it may come across as a 'bad' quote is when some pillock says it to you just after you have had your heart broken.

Back on topic, I don't have any least favourite quotes as I only tend to remember ones I like or ones I can relate to.

Scratch that, do mis-quotations count? Plenty of them I dislike (being a bit of a sci-fi nerd) when I hear them quoted!

Yes its a good qoute. There is a bad time to use it. Ive had that said to me just after a break up with someone i was with 7 years. I was heartbroken at the time. Really didnt want to hear it.


As for bad qoutes if ive come across one it was prob that bad i forgot about it. I do tend to keep the good ones in my head rather then the bad.

Perhaps that is true. But to be honest I felt better looking for love before I experienced it and fell out of it.

Perhaps I had one bad experience and when the right person (I guess "for the time" for the quote to work) maybe then it will be a good one for me.

I think alot of people would have felt better about finding love before they got hurt. I know i did.

I think it's the long, barren waits between losing the love and finding it again that gets me.

I guess it's not all bad. I barely get any time to myself as it is, let alone with a girlfriend in tow. But interestingly I have found ways to occupy myself to fill the void of being lonely whilst being single (and the whole website development for my site started when I broke up with my ex - heh, choosing work rather than closure...never again).

So what are your least favourite quotes?

Leas't fave qoutes. I guess anything that's about 'dont regret anything in life'.

Now i dont know if you have seen ive used these on status updates? I have used them and read them over and over again thinking. Yeah life is to short to have regrets. But no, i have regrets!

No matter how many times i sit and say. its what i wanted at the time.. it dont make me feel better. I always getting people banging regret qoutes in messages. I regret it... end of! lol
