RIP my old sig (which I've had since about Christmas, so nearly since I joined the Downs) *sniff*:

'Hope, compassion, and wisdom born of experience are...the mightiest weapons at hand.' - Viggo Mortensen

I would include my previous Pirates of the Caribbean quote but as I only had it for a day or two, I don't think I will.

This quote from "Orange County" had raised a couple of eyebrows:

~Do you want me to get naked and start the revolution?~

I am happy to report that the revolution is well on its way.

Well I am now laying to rest my quote of...
"Someday your prince will come. Mine got lost, took a wrong turn, and is too stubborn to ask for directions."

Even though it perfectly discribes my current dating situation. It is time for it to go, it has been here for way too long. To this quote I say "Good Bye" [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Alas! I must lay my old signature aside! Farewell, old sig!

Quote:
"The Lord of the Rings is of course a fundamentally religious and Christian work; unconsciously so at first, but consciously in the revision."
"But nobler is his spirit than the understanding of Sauron, for is he not of the children of Luthien?"
Now for something a little different....

My namesake's devastating analysis of what constitutes poetry, and the echo of many later greats:

The newest one is from an Irish children's song. The translation is 'Seaweed from the yellow cliff/ Irish seaweed.'
Nice bit of randomness there. I just need to find one to stick with...I've not yet found anything that truly fits me to the point of being around for awhile, and I doubt this one will be either. Ah well. I suppose it's doomed.

on old and original one.

I would have kept it on for far longer I think, but the 3 line rule would have necessitated pruning which I did not think it could weather...

GaladrielOfTheOlden,

This is not an admonishment, just a thought....

In the last six months you are in this thread no less than a dozen times. That's approximately once every two weeks. www.dictionary.com defines a signature as, among other things, A distinctive mark, characteristic, or sound indicating identity. You are apparently in the middle of an extended identity crisis. Though I and others I am sure, appreciate the materials you choose for your signatures, I think it might by beneficial for you to actually sit back and choose something for your signature that truly represents you as a whole, not just for today. That's not to say that a signature is supposed to represent a person's eternal mission statement, but I think that by turning it a phrase-of-the-week it becomes meaningless in the end.

I kept this one for quite a while, but I decided it was time for a change so, goodbye to this lovely little quote.

Quote:
Those who walk in darkness may be looking to the sun, blnded to the path their feet tread.
I may bring it back later, it is one of my favorite quotes, being one I made up myself.

Edit: And goodbye to this as well:

Quote:
Eenie, meenie, Smeagol, catch him and don't let him fall.
Drop the ring, though he'll yell, and flee the fiery citadel.

Stop the presses, I've changed my sig. I think this has been my favorite one so far, it's a couple lines from two different songs by MB20. It was very "me", but after a few months I figured no one even reads an old sig anymore. So RIP.

Goodbye to my signature of several months:

For everyone and everything there is a time to die. Some do not know it, or would delay it, but its truth cannot be denied. Not when you look into the stars of the Ninth Gate.

I make my triumphant return to the posting world with a change of signatures. Here's my old one:
Quote:
With all this Pirates of the Caribbean nonsense, I think it's time for a moment from Pirates of Penzance: "Pray observe the magnanimity they display to lace and dimity. Never was such opportunity to get married with impunity!" There, wasn't that fun?
I'm returning to my old, beloved Galadriel quote. Huzzah!

Sadly, I've forgotten lately that signatures should last more than a few days. Therefore, I won't list all the great quotes I've sorted through in the past few weeks, instead I'll say farewell to the one most pertinent to my life right now:

Ah! The Scottish Play! Not one of my favourites, but wonderful all the same. My friend played Lady Mac****, dear Erin. She was wonderful.

Anyway, to business. I changed mine long ago, perhaps before I even had a chance to post more than once.

Another, another. I fear I'm too inpatient to keep one signature for more than one month. Ah well.

I shed a tear for:

"If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world."

I got tired of having my siggy sometimes be longer than my post, so I decided to use something much shorter. RIP!

I laid this one to rest quite a while ago, after BW decided Elronds Guestbook had gone too far.. (anyone remember that? Anyone? Oh well, my ex-siggy speaks for itself...)


Quote:
Everybody, do the wave for Boromir the Disco King! And Faramir, his squirrel obsessed brother!
Beware the ERDS, The Squirrels, Penn without her pills, Denethor and Meela with fire, Me & Eowyn working together, The Chipmunks if they think youre a pinata, Legolas without shampoo, Elrond without valium, and basically everything in what USED to be the Last Homely House...

Yah, I know. Long siggy...

This quote attributed to Mae West measured up to my standards:

"It's not the men in my life-it's the life in my men"

Too bad I am listening to a lot of rap right now, and appear to have major ADD.

Ai, Farewell my (somewhat) new sig

Quote:
The Precious has you....
and while we're here we may as well farewell one of our favourite quotes

Quote:
Panic, Chaos, and Disorder. My work here is done.
And time to add one of the funniest (and Truest) things I have heard lately

Quote:
Forget Knights in Shining Armour, I want Elves in Tight Leather
Keep doing the Wave people *waves*

---------------------------------------------

Niiiiiiiiiii!!!!

“’Would you destroy me as easily as you let them be destroyed?’ I demanded. ‘Why should I?’ he asked. ‘My God,’ I whispered. ‘You’re much changed,’ he said. ‘But in a way, you are much the same.’”
From, of course, Interview With the Vampire... Had it for a pretty long time, decided it's time for it to die. And another sig which I had only for a few days before deciding I didn't want it:
Quote:
"I can hear the voice/But I don't want to listen/Strap me down and tell me/I'll be alright..."
All exchanged for a Queen of the Damned Quote. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I'm temporarily disposing of this siggie:

Quote:
There can be no triumph without loss, no victory without suffering, no freedom without sacrifice.
I still loving it, and it's so true, so true even for life, so I'll probable be taking it up again soon. Like during the countdown for ROTK.

But right now, my new siggie is much more appropriate, 'cause I feal like the master of doom myself.

Luff ya all!

Aethelwine.

I'm so sick of that wave..

I changed it this morning, so goodbye former quote.

Quote:
There are no words for rain.
By me, I pulled it from a blog entry of mine.

A story told through time here.

I went looking for the garden of my mother and lo! I found my own.

Never speak to women/unless you speak of flowers,
illustrate your garden/ and walk with them past fountains
but never let them carry your secrets/ they are lapses.


The dead leave us starving with mouths full of love.

For time has not seen her
Thus all the keener.


Mother is the name of God in the lips and hearts of all children.

Death ends a life but not a relationship.

The plot currently unfolds with this:

The sky had never seemed so sky, the world had never seemed so world ....Nothing ... had ever been so interesting .

I now lay to rest the following quote.
Quote:
Cognito eggo sum: I think, therefore I am a waffle.
It served me well, but the Latin trend seems to have passed, and none of the newbies get it. Ah well, onwards and outwards!
