One I've been feeling for a while now, from Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet (translated):

"Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer."
 
Stay far from timid
Only make moves when ya heart's in it
And live the phrase Sky's The Limit
Motherfucker... see you chumps on top

"Do you really think it is weakness that yields to temptation? I tell you there are terrible temptations which require strength and courage to

"Your not meant to choose who you love.....that's fate's or god's job....and they are cruel sadistic bitches." - my grandmother before she died on her death bed. Who was highly religious.

"Always forgive, it's always better to have a light heart then a broken one" - my grandfather.
 
"When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow."
-Anais Nin

"Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is."
-Jim Morrison

I've got some issues that nobody can see

'ya gotta go through it to get through it' -unknown

or

'the only way out is through' - Alanis Morrisette
 
"If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you." - Nietzsche

I'm seriously thinking about getting that quote tattooed!

Good quote, and that would make a good tat. I've been wanting to find a short, but sweet, quote myself and get a new tat. But atm I don't have any money so... Know what's funny, atm = automated teller machine but also atm = at the moment, and I just used it in a sentence about not having money... irony ha.

Anyway...
