"Whatever happens; happens."

Let's see if anyone can finish that one

*glances at bookshelf*

Anything that happens, happens.
Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen.
Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again.
It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order, though.

Best preface ever.

pay attention towards the end, you'll see it, it's saved me from mental breakdowns on more than one occasion

EDITk, someone remind me how to post youtube videos!! in the meantime my motto is "if life gives you lemons, make a lemonade stand, use the money to buy a gun and rob a bank, see how life likes THAT!"

Mine is "Well f**k my butter!"

Not much of a motto I know. But its one of those "you had to be there stories" to sum up it was college friends and i were in the laundry/kitchen (weird combo for a dorm but hey whos to judge) anyway there was a shared fridge up there for everyone in the 9 story dorm. Well one friend was looking in there and said "I wonder if there is anything good in here." I said "Even if there is you probably don't want to eat it, because who knows what people did to it. They probably even f**ked it." It led to lots of laughter and then we noticed there was only a tub of butter in there anyway. Which led us to believe it would be rather obvious if someone had had sex with the butter and the hilarious mental image of someone going to their fridge and seeing a penis size impression in their butter followed by "Well f**k my butter!" (instead of 'well my word' or such phrases)followed immediately by a "which one of you bastards f**ked my butter?"

Mahatma Gandhi: "An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching. "

Another good one: "a person who can only understand the language of beatings cannot be counseled by words."

"If anything in life is worth doing, then you might as well be the best at it."

 

[MasterOfWorlds]

"When you have seen the nearly impossible, the simply improbably seems merely unlikely in comparrison." -Gerald Tarrant, the Coldfire Trilogy

I also like Groucho Marx's, "Outside of a dog, books are a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read." I might not remember this one perfectly, but it's pretty close.

 

[FolkLikePanda]

"If at first you do not succeed, murder the bastard who is making you fail!"

Basically eliminate and destroy all obstacles that prevent you reaching your goal and path of achieving happiness by any means neccessary and ensure they cannot comeback to further impede your progress.
