Mine is probably "love each other or perish" from Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom. But I also like what Dumbledore said in one of the later books, I may be misquoting but here is goes: "To the educated mind, death is but the next great adventure." I also find inspiration in most of Ani DiFranco's words:
I walk in stride with people
much taller than me
and partly it's the boots but
mostly it's my chi
and i'm becoming transfixed
with nature and my parting it
which i believe just signifies
i'm finally waking up
and there's this moth outside my kitchen door
she's bonkers for that bare bulb
flying round in circles
bashing in her exoskull
and out in the woods she navigates fine by the moon
but get her around a light bulb and she's doomed
she's just trying to evolve

No task is too big and no detail too small. You have done a lot and will doubtless go on to even bigger and better acccomplishments. Don't fret about the little setbacks that are bound to occur along the way.

It's in Hindi - Nazariya badal do, Nazare apne aap badal jaayenge. (Change your perception / attitude and the scenes will automatically change). May be I am unable to translate it properly. I think if you can read & understand Hindi - the meaning is very inspiring.

Having set out to reach for the 'stars', one might not succeed but at the same time he or she would not come out with 'mud' either. Well said by Leo Burnet.

"When you come to the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: There will be something solid to stand on or you will be taught how to fly."

You'll never be asked to do something you cannot do. If you can't do with what you already have, more will be given.

Not sure about the exact phrase.
If you knew that you will never fail, then what would you attempt to do? What's holding you back??
