Quine attempt :)

Just tried writing a quine in python, I'm ashamed that it took me too much time to find a solution, so the hide the shame I covered my quine in an ascii art -

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
if __name__ == '__main__':
 """
  'adppppba,                 pp
 dp"      `"pb                ""
dp`        `pb
pp          pp  pp       pp  pp  pb,dPPYba,    ,adPPYba,
pp          pp  pp       pp  pp  ppP`   `"pa  apP_____pp
Yp,    "pp,,pP  pp       pp  pp  pp       pp  pPP'""'"""
 print open(__file__).read();"""pp       pp  "pb,   ,aa
  `"YppppY"Ypa   `"YbbdP'Yp  pp  pp       pp   '"Ybbdp'
  """

Another approach with sys.exit() -

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import sys
if __name__=='__main__':
    print open(__file__).read()
    sys.exit(0)

    for x in xrange(1,10):
        for y in xrange(x):
            print chr(y),
        print

    # ^^ this one is just a cover up, actual quine ends at exit

and yet another approach with muting the stdout :P -

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import sys

class Mute:
  def write(self,msg):
    ''' I am a quine alright '''
  def flush(self):
    ''' so am i :P '''

if __name__=='__main__':
  print open(__file__).read()
  sys.stdout, sys.stderr = Mute(),Mute()
  for x in xrange(1,10):
    for y in xrange(x):
      print chr(y),
    print
