Mine is: "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt." A lot of people "speak up" on this site, if you know what I mean.

Know what you mean...
Mine is To the attentive eye, each moment of the year has its own beauty, and in the same field, it beholds, every hour, a picture which was never seen before and which shall never be seen again.

I do like that one too, but my favorite is...
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
