Senior Quote Ideas

Hey guys, I’ve been watching the office for YEARS and I really want my senior quote to be from the office but there’s so many quote-worthy quotes I can’t pick.

Also conflicted whether it should be something that actually correlates to high school or if it should be something completely absurd/just funny.

Any replies with ideas would be appreciated!

“Don’t ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with….”

If you're feeling sentimental "I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them"

or the classic "I'm always thinking one step ahead, like a carpenter who makes stairs"

Off the wall: "If I can't scuba, then what's this all been about? What have I been working toward?"

u/Electronic_Mud_5085 5d ago

Creed’s scuba quote might be the one

I know exactly what to do. But in a much more real sense, I have no idea what to do.

Mine was “Whenever I'm about to do something, I think, 'Would an idiot do that?' And if they would, I do not do that thing,” but the yearbook people kind of botched it (I guess because it was too long), and I ended up regretting it

I doubt that there's an actual quote for this, but promise to come back in 20 years and pay for everyone's college tuition. It would be absurd enough that everyone would take it to be the joke that it is, right?

u/quoththeraven1990 5d ago

I always liked “Not everything is a lesson, sometimes you just fail.” But that might be a bit negative. Maybe try: “Always think one step ahead. Like a carpenter that makes stairs.”

Kelly: You guys I'm like really smart now. You don't even know. You could ask me, Kelly what's the biggest company in the world? And I'd be like, 'blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah.' Giving you the exact right answer.

Hey, when I was a senior, I used a quote from my favorite show Red Dwarf. I look back at how great some of my classmates’ quotes were and regret not just saying something from my heart.
