I saw jbennet's older post and looking over people sigs I wonder if anyone has any quotes from anywhere they thought were good.. here are a few I gathered up in the past few years...
"The worst thing I can be is the same as everybody else. I hate that."
Author: Arnold Schwarzenegger
"The only stupid question is the one you really need the answer to, but didn't ask"
"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength." - Arnold
"Knowing is not enough we must apply. Willing is not enough we must do." - Bruce Lee
"Everyone is born original, but so many die as copies"
"Good things don't happen by coincidence. Every dream carries with it certain risks, especially the risk of failure. But I am not stopped by risks. Suppose a great person takes the risk and fails. Then the person must try again. You cannot fail forever. If you try ten times, you have a better chance of making it on the eleventh try than if you didn't try at all." - Arnold Schwarzenegger
"I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." - Albert Einstein
"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." -Kristian Wilson, Nintendo, Inc, 1989
"Programming is like sex. One mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life."
anyone got any others.. I did a quick search.. couldn't find another topic like this and I don't recall any from the past...

I read the following quote many years ago, and have kept it around because it applies to every aspect of one's life:
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is acutally in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valantly, who errs and comes up short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcomings, who knows the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
President Theodore Roosevelt

I found this quote.....and like it
Mark Twain
"The man who follows the crowd will
usually get no further than the crowd.
The man who walks alone is likely
to find himself in places no one has
ever been."
