Famous or inspiring quote? (5-10 sentences)?
I need to do a project for school that involves an interesting quote that is 5-10 sentences long. Can be more than 10, but would prefer it not to be. Can definitely not be less than 5.
I would like it to be funny, inspiring, heartwarming or famous.
Maybe something from a movie, a book, or lyrics from a song.
Any suggestions, please?
When I say quote, I mean any memorable quote, passage, saying, or excerpt.

Most recorded, memorable quotes are WAY shorter than 5 lines.
After 3 lines you're going to get WAY boring.
AND you can quote me on that.

I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here, and what the question might mean. I might think about it a little bit, but if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else. But I don't have to know an answer.... I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn't frighten me. ~Richard Phillips Feynman

The Agony of Lost Love: When you lose someone, someone you love, when they break your heart, it's the hardest thing you could ever go through, and no matter how much time has passed, it never really goes away. You may think you're getting better, but then you get a flash back, or hear a song that reminds you of a memory, and it hits you all over again, all at once, like a stab in the chest, you fall apart for the hundredth time. You love this person with all of your heart, even though you know you shouldn't. They hurt you worse than you've ever been hurt. They stole your happiness; but yet, you still want them, and only them. Other people come along and give you chances to move on but you know you don't want to. It upsets you that you might be moving on, because you promised you never would; and even if they broke all their promises, you want to keep yours. On top of that, you're terrified; terrified of getting hurt again. You dont want to miss them anymore. you dont want to love them anymore.
To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer and not to love is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.
A girl asked a boy if she was pretty. He said no. Then she asked him he liked her and he said no. She asked him if he wanted to be with her forever. He said no. She then asked him if he would cry if she walked away. He again said no. She had heard too much. She needed to leave. As she walked away, he grabbed her arm and told her to stay. He said "You're not pretty, you're beautiful. I don't like you, I love you. I don't want to be with you forever, I need to be with you forever, and I wouldn't cry if you walked away, I would die.
"For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness, For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people, For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry, For Beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day, For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others." — Audrey Hepburn
