Re: Personal sayings or words you live by...
Here are a few of my favourites
"There are no ordinary moments"
"Moderation? It's mediocrity, fear and confusion in disguise. It's the devil's dilemma. It's neither doing nor not doing. It's the wobbling compromise that makes no one happy. Moderation is for the bland, the apologetic, for the fence-sitters of the world afraid to take a stand. It's for those afraid to laugh or cry, for those afraid to live or die. Moderation…is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew"
"The journey is what brings us happiness not the destination"
"Everyone wants to tell you what to do and what's good for you. They don't want you to find your own answers, they want you to believe theirs"
"Death isn't sad. The sad thing is: most people don't live at all"

Unfortunately if you can't count on yourself, your f*d. :) As is the case with most everyone.
Re: Personal sayings or words you live by...
I like lot's of sayings.
Speak softly but carry a big stick...
Luck is when preparation & oppourtunity meet...
I'm more into certain short prayers.
Here's one I reside every morning when I wake up.
Holy Jesus, be my Light,
Shine upon my way;
Through this tempting, changing life
Lead me day by day.
Amen.
Really reflects in 4 short sentences what one live through daily.
We need light as sometimes the path get's dark and hard to see.
With so many temptations around us we're constantly making choices.
Within seconds our lifes can dramatically change and they do change by the minute.
