Lightbulb Favourite Quotes

I have lots of quotes that I have been collecting for years, and often relish in there deep-held wisdom and wicked humour. Although some of my favourites are sometimes quite twisted (like the blogger starting this post), I'm very interested to hear of other favourites (or hidden philosophies) that "Icers" might have here.

To start the ball rolling, so to speak, one of my very favourite is from the 19th Century English author Walter Bagehot, who said;

"A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."


...and one by H. G. Wells that I have held most of my life...

"If you fell down yesterday, stand up today."


Any other good ones?
