favorite one/few line quotes about life?
i'm making some kick-a grpahics to go with some photography i took a while back. and i'm looking for some awesome quotes to put on them. i don't want anything cliche or over done. i mostly use a lot of random lyrics, or small bits of quotes i find every now and then. here are some examples:
"be young, think smart, stay true, and just follow your heart."
"live like you meant it."
"happiness will only come to those who already appreciate what they have."
"i need you like a lyric needs a melody."
"it's not faith if you use your eyes."
i'll all for the whole "i'm happy to be alive and thankful for what i have" kind of thing. any takers? (:
