A few of Mine:

"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way."


"Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives."


"Maybe God wanted us to meet the wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift."

"No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry."

"To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world."

"Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened"
 
I find that "A sharp tongue can slit it's own throat" and "it is better to say nothing and look a fool than speak and prove it" help my tact.
 
"You go in the cage? Cage goes in the water? You go in the water? Shark's in the water? Our shark?

*sings*

Fairwell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies
Fairwell and adieu to you ladies of Spain
For we received orders to sail back to Boston
For nevermore shall we see you again"

"Here lies the body of Mary Lee
She died at the age of 103
For thirteen years she kept her virginity
Not a bad record for this vircinity"

"Here's to swimmin' with bow-legged women"

"Slow ahead? I can slow ahead, why don't you come down here and chum some of this shi-

*Shark nearly bites his hand off*

You're gonna need a bigger boat."

- JAWS
 
"If you ask a question you think is silly you'll feel silly for 5 minutes after you've asked it. If you don't ask the question, you'll feel silly for the rest of your life"

^ Unless it's about where to get the black cars in GT4 anyway ;)
 
"Revenge is a dish best served cold"
 
"Was!? Was?! Normandie?!"
 
"Always have a back-up plan"
 
"Don't tell me to go to hell, I live in it."

"Good Job, Here's a cookie"

"Don't Push It"
 
"There is no try, there is only do." - Yoda
"Use The Force!" - Obi-Wan
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" - Obi-Wan
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" - Darth Vader


Hahaha.

Isn't it "Do or do not, there is no try."?
I mostly dislike motivational sayings as most people see them. Instead, here's some famous last words I'm quite fond of:

Shoot straight you bastards, don't make a mess of it. (Executed by firing squad)- Harry "Breaker" Morant, d. 1902

Go away. I'm all right. -- H. G. Wells, novelist, d. 1946

Don't let it end like this. Tell them I said something. -- Pancho Villa, Mexican revolutionary, d. 1923

Too late for fruit, too soon for flowers. -- Walter De La Mare, writer, d. 1956

A King should die standing. -- Louis XVIII, King of France, d. 1824

They couldn't hit an elephant at this dist..(Killed in battle, US Civil War) - John Sedgwick, Union Commander, d. 1864
 
"The ornaments look pretty but they're pulling down the branches of the tree." -Cake
 
"this doesn't mean we're going to be taking long, hot showers into the wee hours of the morning"
 
Emohawk

Pshhh. Whut-evah.

It's an interpretation. (but, yes, that is the right quote.)
 
"Keep an open mind, and people will put garbage in it."
I saw this attributed to Einstein, but I don't think that's acutally true. (the attribution, that is. The quote's definatly true.)
 
“By itself, pain is not always enough. There are occasions when a human being will stand out against pain, even to the point of death. But for everyone there is something unendurable – something that cannot be contemplated. Courage and cowardice are not involved. If you are falling from a height it is not cowardly to clutch at a rope. If you have come up from deep water it is not cowardly to fill your lungs with water. It is merely an instinct which cannot be destroyed.” – O’Brien from George Orwell's 1984
 
Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none.

(The guy on the US 100 dollar bill)
 
"You cannot appreciate winning until you've lost."
 
Work is the curse of the drinking classes. Oscar Wilde

Edit: I couldn’t resist another :D

‘If you want the rainbow, you’ve gotta put up with the rain.’ Do you know which philosopher said that? Dolly Parton… and people say she’s just a big pair of tits. David Brent
 
I like that Churchill quote, that basically says who isn't a liberal when they are younger has no heart. Someone who isn't a conservative when they are older has no brain.

There are many versions of this quote floating around. Also, I hope it doesn't offend anybody. It's a interesting take, and that's all. ;)

I like the Churchill quote that went something like this...

Angry Lady - "If you were my husband, I would put poison in your coffee!"

Churchill - "If you were my wife, I would drink that cup of coffee!"

I've heard of that one, too. :lol: Good one!
 
"If you are going through Hell, keep going", is also a Churchill quote.

"We are the people our parents warned us about", don't know who said this one.
 
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. - Douglas Adams

I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer. - Douglas Adams

The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits - Albert Einstein
 
:lol: More good ones. I forgot about the Albert Einstein one. :D
 
Douglas Adams is infinitely quotable.


Charles Barkley is great, too:

"I really don't eat that much. I just, more or less, tend to eat all the time."

"My goals are to play the piano and get really, really, really fat."

"The NBA stands for No Babies Allowed."

"Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back. Even if it does look like he hasn't eaten in a while."

Awesome.
 
Here are some more of mine:

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." –Albert Einstein

“The important thing is never to stop questioning.” –Albert Einstein

"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." –Napoleon Bonaparte
