Gotta Motto?

[Zippy]

"The grave has no victory, for it never fights" - John Muir

That one definitely motivates me on occasion, along with something a pro triathlete wrote when she signed an autograph for me. She was probably just trying to think of something to write, but I've kind of taken it to heart:

"Live you dreams." - Michellie Jones

Some of the worst things imaginable have been done with the best intentions....not a motto but a quote I like

I like this one better:
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."


Words to live by:

1)When in doubt, ruck (or huck)

2)"If you f**k up badly enough, the pain will only last a few seconds."

3)"One man with courage is a majority"

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

If at first you don't succeed skydiving is not for you.

If at first you don't succeed your about average.

Like Schleppp, this is got to be my favorite:

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body... But rather to skid in broadside proclaiming... WOW! WHAT A RIDE!"

I've tired to find out who is credited with this, but from what I've found it is a bit ambiguous.

I'm know way as knar as many, but I do try, and I hope to be able to live up to this saying, even just a little.
