    'The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' - Ronald Reagan

    A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small bundle.
    -Benjamin Franklin

    A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.
    -Thomas Jefferson

    As our enemies have found we can reason like men, so now let us show them we can fight like men also.
    -Thomas Jefferson

    Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more, you should never wish to do less.
    -Robert E. Lee

    The trite saying that honesty is the best policy has met with the just criticism that honesty is not policy. The real honest man is honest from conviction of what is right, not from policy.
    -Robert E. Lee

    Boy, those French: they have a different word for everything!
    -Steve Martin

    A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.
    -George S. Patton

    Americans play to win at all times. I wouldn't give a hoot and hell for a man who lost and laughed. That's why Americans have never lost nor ever lose a war.
    -George S. Patton

    Do your damnedest in an ostentatious manner all the time.

    "Logical consequences are the scarecrows of fools and the beacons of wise men." - Thomas Huxley

    "The good traveler never arrives" - Lao Tzu

    "That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence" - Not sure who said this first

    EDIT: OK, that last one's not inspirational. But I still like it.

    I find that this is more true of Germans:

    For example:

    Telekommunikationssytemelektroniker
    Einhandmotorkettensägenführerlehrgangsteilnahmeb estätigung
    Supermarkteinkaufstütenbeschriftung

    or even

    ratskeller (pub beneath street level)

    "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 better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

    lately I've been dropping this one a lot:

    ?"Life is for living, folks. Don't let a number be anything other than a number. Don't let somebody tell you that you're too old to do this or too old to do that. Stay in life. Life is a gift. It's a joy. Don't drop out of it. Don't let somebody else tell you and don't let your mind tell you."- Dick LeBeau
