Here’s one I love: “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs.
It always motivates me to focus on my passions. What’s a quote that inspires you?
“If it is too hard to cope with failure, how can you ever be able to handle success?” -Unknown.
Better a pig than a fascist
Porco Rosso
“The best way to handle, to take care of the future, is to take care of the present moment. What else can you do?”
— Thich Nhat Hanh, The Art Of Mindful Living
Jobs was such a piece of shit, anything positive he said I just can’t digest it. Fuck that guy.

Lol, I was going to say cancer
Only you can take a sad song and make it better.
Just remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
“We choose to go to the moon” was the first thing that popped into my mind.
And related to OPs quote. “If you love your job, you’ll never work a day in your life”.
Some things are in our control and others not.
Epictitus, The Enchiridion
“The injury that is to be done to a man should be of such a kind that one does not stand in fear of revenge. “

David Foster Wallace (although he may have been quoting someone else)
Life sucks… And then you die.
This is my personal favourite
“We are made of starstuff” – Carl Sagan
It’s inspiration to me because it always reminds me of our insignificantly small and momentary place in this universe.
This too shall pass
Good things too.
I don’t ask for permission. I ask for forgiveness.
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
– Conan
Actually that’s a (albeit debated) quote from Genghis Khan.
