  • This is kind of long but this is a framed prayer I have hanging on my office wall:

    "Dear God: Help me to be a sport in this little game of life. I don't ask for any easy place in the lineup. Play me anywhere your need me. I only ask fo the stuff to give you one hunderd percent of what I've got. If all of the hard drives seem to come my way, I thank you for the compliment. Help me to remember that you won't ever let anything come my way that you and I together can't handle."

    and also " It is not the size of the dog in the fight it's the size of the fight in the dog"

    Changes my life every day, this one..
    "there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so" Shakespeare (Hamlet)

    Though Yoda mentioned above ("Do. Or Do not. There is no try.") comes a close second.

    It's kind of heavy and not a one liner, but the poem "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley inspires me everytime I've read it.
    Out of the night that covers me,
    Black as the pit from pole to pole,
    I thank whatever gods may be
    For my unconquerable soul.

    In the fell clutch of circumstance
    I have not winced nor cried aloud.
    Under the bludgeonings of chance
    My head is bloody, but unbowed.

    Beyond this place of wrath and tears
    Looms but the Horror of the shade,
    And yet the menace of the years
    Finds and shall find me unafraid.

    It matters not how strait the gate,
    How charged with punishments the scroll.
    I am the master of my fate:
    I am the captain of my soul.
