There is a website that sells spoof inspirational posters. There are some crackin examples on there. I have not got full internet access at the moment or I would look it up for you.

How about something classical in Latin? "Semper in excrementum sole profundum qui variat" springs to mind 
(Always in the excrement, just how deep varies - used to be the motto of my swordfighting group!)

I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the darkness off the Tannhauser gate. All those... moments... will be lost. Like tears... in rain. Time... to die.
Typed from memory. I hope I got it right. I hate to see it wrong. 
On the other hand, I have to applaud enthusiastically the twisted genius behind the suggestion of "Work will make you free". If anyone is not getting reference (is ANYONE not getting the reference?) I urge you to google the phrase...

The unofficial motto of the Process Engineering Section I work in is: 'vos es nusquam vacuus nos', 'you are nothing without us'

Otto Fisch ("Stop analysing Strava.... and cut your hedge") Posted Mar 12, 2011
"I'm just an admin grunt"
"Law. Broadly"
Now they're both top mottos....
Or...
"I fought the law, and the law has been given leave to appeal at the high court"
"Let me handle your briefs"
"Serve the public. Protect the innocent. Uphold the law."

Twaggers
You mean like Joe Satriani naming the study in tune based on that scene 'Tears In The Rain'. Personally, I'll let him off as it's a beautiful tune. Also, it's better than the original title: 'Study In A Harmonic Minor #26'

Some great suggestions here. I'm loving the Bladerunner one, but I don't think it would pass. I'd love to do "Work makes me free", if only I could be confident it wouldn't be picked up on. If it were, I would be in big trouble.
I may well go for "Gaudeo Semper Dolo Perfecto". It's a loose translation of "I love it when a plan comes together"...

How about fancying up " work makes me free " iinto something like " i believe freedom is the reward of hard work".

Taff - Push to open
Like the speech day at school - a dramatic gesture at the door, "That's what you need to get on in this world"
But, on the INside it said 'PULL'
