I try very hard to live my life by the following verse (not really a quote, though)
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
I say it every morning and every night...
Most of the answerers gave you some pretty good ones, too!

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming...."WOW...What a ride!!"

My own personal favorite, a reminder that things in writing are often unfixable:
"The moving finger writes and having writ moves on; nor all your piety nor wit can call it back, nor all your tears wash out a word of it."
This is from the Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayyam, a Persion poet.

Don't be afraid to try hard to get what you want, the best things are sometimes hard to get. And if you fail once try again and keep trying until you finally suceed.

And then, it needs must follow, as night , the day,
That then, thou cannot be false to any man." (Hamlet)

My favorite quote. It was even my senior quote lol:
"To be nobody but yourself in a world that's doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to fight. Never stop fighting." -e.e. cummings

"Dance like no one is watching, Sing like no one is listening, and live your life to the fullest everyday." -An Irish Proverb or something like that.

Life is about the journey, not the destination. So stop running.

I shall pass through this world but once.
Therefore, any good deed that I may do,
Any kindness that I may show, let me do it now.
Let me not neglect or defer it,
For I shall not pass this way again.
