Here are a few of my favorite-
"The greater the obstacle the greater the satisfaction in overcoming it."
"Feel the fear and do it anyway."
"Tough times don't last; tough people do."
"Don't try too hard to fit in when you were born to stand out!"
"What would you attempt if you Knew you would not fail."
"Just remember: When you think all is lost, the future remains."
"Giving up is the ultimate tragedy."
"Great is the man who has not lost his childlike heart."
Hope you like

Here are the words I live by, and yes, they have changed my life. They have often brought me peace in troubled times. I share it every chance I get: DESIDERATA by Max Ehrmann Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy."

All that is necessary for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

say what you mean and mean what you say because the people who mind don't matter and the people who matter won't mind.
