Scorpio is known to be intense, emotional, loyal, passionate, all or nothing and disinterested in anything superficial.
I don’t have pet peeves, I have whole kennels of irritation.
Whoopi Goldberg
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.
Pablo Picasso
Even in the darkest phase be it thick or thin, always someone marches brave here beneath my skin.
K. D. Lang
Along with a strong belief in your own inner voice, you also need laser-like focus combined with unwavering determination.
Larry Flynt
In high school, I dressed up as every James Bond girl. I was a teenage Pussy Galore.

Have a Scorpio quote? Please add on…
Oh I like ~this~ batch!!! 😀
Look at their EYES!
Compared to Aries (who are always looking ahead), Scopios just dig into you..
we scorpios usually dig into ourselves as well ….
MORE SCORPIO QUOTES: (Sorry no pictures!)
“Speak softly and carry a big stick.”
Theodore Roosevelt, October 27,1858
“Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are stiffened.”
Billy Graham, November 7, 1918
“There is nothing new except what has been forgotten.”
Marie Antoinette, November 2, 1755
“It is always with excitement that I wake up in the morning wondering what my intuition will toss up to me, like gifts from the sea. I work with it and rely on it. It’s my partner.”
Dr. Jonas Salk, October 28, 1914
“Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.”

“Being with an insanely jealous person is like being in the room with a dead mammoth.”

if you ever cheat on me i’ll stab you with a fork? – bee
just kidding. (kinda) 🙂
These are again from my friend’s profile:
“When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you”
“The first and best victory is to conquer self.”
I feel like the first is Scorpio, but am more certain that the second more clearly correlates to it, what with their ability to analyze/criticize and better the self. A Scorpio I know told me that when criticized, he turns it to considering how just it is, figuring out what’s wrong and bettering himself or, to be redundant, self-improvement.
Hmm, the Mike Nichols one, what does it mean?
“Being with an insanely jealous person is like being in the room with a dead mammoth.”
Mike Nichols, November 6, 1931
“if you don’t look a gift horse in the mouth how do you know if there are trojans inside?”
Ok now, I’m keepin’ that Satori comment. Thanks!
ROFLMOA!! There is a reason I love Scorpio comedians . . . saw Rosanne Barr live once & just about killed myself laughing! I have Jupiter in Scorpio as well. 🙂
BTW, this is only slightly off topic – I just got & read Donna Cunningham’s book, “Healing Pluto Problems”. Plutonians include Scorpios, those with Pluto in aspect to personal planets &, ta da . . . the 8th House types!! She just nailed us!!
Neith – Plutonians have problems? I thought we caused problems.
Just kidding. 😉
Success isn’t a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire. ~Arnold H. Glasow
Don’t know if he was a scorpio-but being a Scorp Rising-I feel his words! 🙂

“If only I had a little humility, I’d be perfect.” -Ted Turner, b) Nov. 19, 1938

I wasn’t kidding at the time I said it to someone who was messing w/one of my kiddos.
K.D. Lang and Whoopi Goldberg, I wanna be at that partee. Intense humor that’s what Scorp potential is all about. And Satori, the Trojan horse quote is making my belly jiggle …thanks for that!
I was a teenage Pussy Galore.
Hrmm. I’ll say.

The “Pet Peeve” statement by Whoopi applies to the special Scorpio in my life 😛
I should probably amend that “gift horse” statement to say “greeks inside” rather than trojans. hm.
Charlotte, fantastic Plath quote. So Scorpio and so sexy and wow.
It’s all in the eyes. Scorpio Power!!! 😉
