"Some people are just d**ks"

Try it. It's amazing how that thought can reduce the stress in your day.

You never get a second chance to make a good first impression.

Like joko, "better to regret what you've done than regret not doing it at all"

Seriously,

"Do not assume anything" (sorry do not know the latin equivalent).

Oh Boy!, this can save you lots of aggro.

A Friend of mine recently died. He was a very happy go-lucky kind of guy who never got stressed about anything. He loved people, and never worried about money or possesions. One of his motto's was...

'Dont worry about what you havent got, just look after what you have got'

re 'DOE' - do everything once

2 of them:
Better to regret what you've done than regret not doing it at all (already posted by someone else above) and
'Shoot for the moon; if you miss you'll be among the stars'. That one was actually the puchline of a bad joke, but I agree with the sentiment - do your very best, and even if you don't hit the top, you still do well.

I also like one similar to one of the others above:
The darkest hour is just before dawn.

From my all-time favourite TV series Hill Street Blues......

"Let's be VERY careful out there"

"Let's do it to them before they do it to us"

Just how cynical can you get?

I used to have some problems with people accepting me for who I am in high school, which is when I came up with this:
"I am what I am, I'll do what I do, If you've a problem with that - I don't care, F*** you!"
That may seem very self-righteous and ignorant, but I'm generally a nice guy, so what I am and what I do really shouldn't pose a problem to anyone.
