Here’s one I love: “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs.
It always motivates me to focus on my passions. What’s a quote that inspires you?
Better a pig than a fascist
Porco Rosso
“You will become way less concerned with what other people think of you when you realize how seldom they do.”
David Foster Wallace (although he may have been quoting someone else)
“Why should I kill myself? It’s everyone else that sucks!”
Forgot where it came from, though. Bender, from Futurama?
Oh that reminds me of something funny my old psychiatrist told me: when people complain that everybody hates them, he responds: how can that be true? You haven’t even met everyone yet!
“We choose to go to the moon” was the first thing that popped into my mind.
And related to OPs quote. “If you love your job, you’ll never work a day in your life”.
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
– Conan
Actually that’s a (albeit debated) quote from Genghis Khan.
Only you can take a sad song and make it better.
Just remember to let her into your heart

Good things too.
“We are made of starstuff” – Carl Sagan
It’s inspiration to me because it always reminds me of our insignificantly small and momentary place in this universe.
“If it is too hard to cope with failure, how can you ever be able to handle success?” -Unknown.
“The best way to handle, to take care of the future, is to take care of the present moment. What else can you do?”
— Thich Nhat Hanh, The Art Of Mindful Living
I don’t ask for permission. I ask for forgiveness.
He died from what he loved being…
Mentally ill and delusional.
I love that for him.
