Here's my new favorite quote based on a variety of recent experiences (fortunately, very few of them first-hand). I'm not sure I can completely take credit for this one, but it's my wording:
"Some people just aren't happy unless they can find something to complain about."

A couple (updated 3/25/09) for motorcyclists:
"Live every day as though it was your last, but ride to make sure it's not!"
- me
"Riding like there's no tomorrow is the quickest way to prove yourself right."
- me
Also, from the wisdom of the iPhone Backgrounds app:
"Take risks: If you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wise."
...and another that is exactly right:
"Don't look for inspiration. Start working, and inspiration will come to you."
And, one from a friend:
"To achieve one's goals, one must be willing to give without expecting to receive anything in return. Be proud even when you think you don't have anything to be proud of, and be friends with those who wish to see you fail. Because a follower will always be a follower until he or she makes the sacrifice of a leader."
