Looking for a Sonic quote

[Kalle Bowo]

Hi there,
just after watching the movie American Beauty I remembered the feeling of a quote done by Sonic. It deals with the tearms of finding the strength of getting active and changing something in your life. In some case just like an old chinese saying "everyday you make a decision, that is a happy day". I really can't tell how Sonic's saying sounded like, but I remember the idea of painting it onto my a wall of my room. So I would be really happy if someone could help me to remember the good old days :)

Thanks a lot,
Kalle Bowo

I'm thinking you're thinking of one of these.

From Sonic 1: "Don't just sit there and waste your precious time. When you want to do something, do it right away. Do it when you can. It's the only way to live a life without regrets."

From Sonic CD: ""To live a life of power, you must have faith that what you believe is right even if others tell you you're wrong. The first thing you must do to live a life of power is to find courage. You must be ready to reach beyond the boundaries of time itself. And to do that all you need is the will to take that first step."

or maybe

From Sonic 3/K: "Sonic races through the green fields. The sun races through a blue sky filled with white clouds. The ways of his heart are much like the sun. Sonic runs and rests; the sun rises and sets. Don't give up on the sun. Don't make the sun laugh at you."

I wonder if that last one doesn't have something to do with "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying" by Gerry and the Peacemakers. With all the musical influences on Sonic 1's soundtrack, it makes me really curious.

Thanks for the fast reply, but somehow there's not the quote I'm looking for .. I guess I have to take a deep look at my harddrive, maybe I made a wallpaper or something like that where I could have used the sentence.

Was it on one of the wallpapers from the old Sonic Team site?

EDIT: Okay, this is what I was thinking of, and it totally isn't it.

[Isuka]

Or perhaps it was that one from the Sonic Adventure wallpapers?

"I'll never look back, I've got no regrets
'Cause time doesn't wait for me
I choose to go my own way"

"I'll never look back, I've got no regrets
'Cause time doesn't wait for me
I choose to go my own way"

Huh...first time I saw that was on the card table in the Sonic Hi Lo game from Shuffle.

I always figured that was the original translation of the It Doesn't Matter lyrics, before they were made into, y'know, lyrics.

[Malchik]

"Lets blast through with sonic speed" is the only quote that really stuck with me.

[G.Silver]

"It's juice and jam time!"

[P.P.A.]

YOU'RE TOO SLOW

And on the back of the Sonic CD cover it also says

"Ask not that others can do for you, but what you can do for others." ...Sonic

Aside from the thing at the front that G.Silver quoted correctly already.

[G.Silver]

Apparently this one is from Sonic 2006? I never bothered with it.

"Nothing starts until you take action. If you have time to worry, then run!"

[Shadow Hog]

Yeah, more or less. Sonic says that to Elise after that desert stage (in some cutscene that takes place in the Bliss wallpaper from Windows XP). It's a lot more awkward in that context than it is otherwise.

[Esrever]

Sonic sure has said a lot of pretentious bullshit for a talking rodent!

[Dr. Watson]

The single most memorable line to ever come out of Sonics mouth is without a doubt,

“aah... i was on a snooze cruise, i guess”

After those words are spoken, and we see a just a brief glimpse of Tails reaction to them, one can truely see how the young foxs entire world gets torn apart, as he realises that his once-idol has finally lost his last shred of coolness, that the hero he once knew is dead and has ben replaced by the inhumanly pathetic creature that now stands in front of him. This scene just breaks my heart every single time i watch it.

[RocketPunch]

"Aww yeah! This is happenin'!"

[M.C.Dillinger]

"Tails watch out your gona crash, Ahhh!"

[Crazy Penguin]

"Dat was tight!"

[Segaholic2]

I'M OUTTA HEAH

In all seriousness, what's up with that expression? When I saw the cutscene for the first time, I thought Chaos or Eggman was right behind him about to beat the shit out of him.
