This is a very good thread....here's some I use on occasion...

"there's always a way"

"we don't know where we're going...but we're making great progress"

I often remind clients (re-divorce)..."it's cheaper to keep her" !!

My father's classic toast..."Here's to you, as good as you are, & to me as bad as I am...but as good as you are & as bad as I am...I'm as good as you are...as bad as I am."

From Albert Einstein..."Not everything that counts can be counted, & not everything that can be counted counts"

About sailing..."someone with little experience that buys a boat & then thinks himself a captain, is like the guy who goes into McDonalds for a big Mac & then thinks he's Mayor McCheese".

About life..."you don't stop laughing when you get old, you get old when you stop laughing"

Finally, this one from Rodney Dangerfield..."It's easy to grin when your ship comes in & you think you have the stock market beat...but the man who's worthwhile is the man who can smile, when his shorts are too tight in the seat".
