I like this one...although I'll have to edit it.
FIDO. read just like a dog's name.
But it stands for F**k It Drive On.
Because no matter how hard things are, I'm just to stubborn to not get through to my goal.
No matter what.

"Those who seek offense rarely fail to take it."
"If you prepare to be pleased,
eventually, you will be.
If you prepare to be disappointed,
you never will be."
"If at first you don't succeed,
subcontract."
"It takes a village to raise an idiot."
"Every five years or so, I examine my preconceptions. If I still have some that I haven't proven or disproven, I discard them for another set. You can't learn anything without a hypothesis."
Bad paraphrase of Marvin Minsky
Oh, get off it, Looney, at least they're reading. That's a good first step.

A couple of my favorites, depending on my mood:
"Life is uncertain: Eat dessert first."
and
"I have not drawn a line in the sand, I have jackhammered it into the concrete!".

Both come from my life experiences
The bigger the mistake, the better you learn.
And, same as Moby's: don't take yourself too seriously.

This is Biblical, apparently. I don't have much truck with Christianity, but I like this...
"Be as cunning as the snake, but as harmless as the dove."
Best wishes

"Don't take life so seriously, you'll never get out of it alive anyway." I think Bugs Bunny said that. If only I could live up to it. But people do their best to keep you from being spontaneous and joyous without a reason.

Don't regret the things have done, regret the things you haven't done.

Actually, I think that "Bugs Bunny" quote was a Walt Kelly "Pogo" quote. Howland Owl, I believe, said it.

"Don't spend your time looking around
For something you want but can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
Just go along not thinking about it"

From Rik Mayall, in "The Comic Strip Presents: Mr Jolly Lives Next Door":
"Never, ever bloody anything, EVER!".
Words to live by.

Some inaccurate Latin:
Semper in faecibus sumus, sole profundum variat - we're always in the s**t, it's just the depth that varies
and
Nils illegitimus carborundum - don't let the b******s grind you down.
deal with most situations.
Apologies to any Latin scholars.

I like that Xanatic.
I can be bit too serious, should be more spontanous more often but it just doesn't happen... Maybe now I've got Bugs Bunny in my head he'll remind me to do just that. Not that I think i'm misrable or make other peeps misrable or quash in anyway, at least I hope I don't
Never had a motto, probably needed one.
Love Peanut xx

I like the New team rocket motto, (Note: this does'nt mean I support pokémon)
To infect the world with devistation
To disband all peoples within foreign nations
To seperate the evils of truth and love
To extend our wrath above
Rodger
Ford
Neo-rocket curcles Earth day and night
Surrender to us now, or you'll surely lose the fight
Wobbuffet!!!!!
And later decend and become the Vogon empire.

What is that supposed to mean?
Is pokémon, on the porn channels now. Adult X, do pokémon uncut with all the sourcy bits to explain how Pichus com around.
(Pichus are the pre-evolution of Pikachus)-totally useless info.
