One of my mine is:


"I've always measured success not only by the amount of people that love you but the ones that hate you too. If you do something that everyone loves then its not really worth too much." - Marilyn Manson
 
"It's easy to be an armchair quarterback and criticize high-profile people who make high-profile mistakes, but it is awfully hard to be successful enough to become high-profile in the first place." - Scott Forstall, Apple Inc.
 
"They talk of my drinking but never my thirst" - Scottish proverb.

"The only normal people are the ones you don't know very well" - Joe Ancis.
 
"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true". - Spock (Leonard Nimoy)

"In critical moments, men sometimes see exactly what they wish to see" - Spock (Leonard Nimoy)

"Computers make excellent and efficient servants, but I have no wish to serve under them" - Spock (Leonard Nimoy)

Alright, so I gave three from the late Leonard Nimoy as Spock, so what? All sensible none the less.:)
 
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!

Benjamin Franklin
 
One of my favorites:

"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety" - Ben Franklin
 
"Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view." - Unknown
 
"In an insane society, the sane man must appear insane." - Spock
 
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work."

Thomas Edison
 
“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Steve Jobs
 
“Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody.”
― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
 
The commitment to your own happiness is the greatest gift that you could ever give someone. When you give your time, you are sharing a portion of your life.

Elwood P. Dowd: Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
