It'll do.
Vescere bracis meis...
A few:
Excelsior (given to me by a chap when I was 13)
Don't think it, [b]do[/b] it.
Life's too short for cheap red wine.
Ex-wife had some nobility in the distant family whose motto translated as "Little Is Enough". Can't recall the Latin. Coat of arms featured a rampant squirrel, too.
Hardly inspiring.
Growing up we were never allowed to say "if only"....something my Dad learned in the Army.
Personal motto:
No need to be a d1ck about it.
Apply it to myself and others.
Meh
Rectum protectum.
Carpe Jugulum
Carpe Diem, since the older relatives started dropping off the branch.
Or
What could possibly go wrong!
various... situation dependant
"Contact!... wait, out"
"This looks complicated, get a bigger hammer"
"Who???? ...ME????"
"Hold my Pint and watch this"
"Wasnae me"
"yes dear"
"trust me"
"er..."
"Plod... leggit!"
"mistakes have been made, scapegoats will be found"
what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Thurman Merman - I'm certainly inspired by a rampant squirrel. Who wouldn't be? All these lions and dragons and stuff are massively over-rated IMHO, and SOOOOOOOOOOOO predictable. A rampant squirrel shows a bit of imagination, at least. Was it surrounded by angry worms?
"Hold my Pint and watch this"
Best one so far, by miles 😆
I've got 2 -
"Aw **** it, it can't be [i]that[/i] hard"
and
"Oops...."
Often it's one followed by the other.

Keep It Simple Stupid
Some people have an incredible ability to make a simple thing very complicated.

Welcome to the public sector!
From Dr Seuss -
Be who you are and say what you feel,
because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away."
"Don't do today, what you can put off for at least a month"
personal "if not now then when shall we live?"
profesional "stand up speak up shut up sit down"
profesional on a bad day"close enough for government work"
Seek simplicity then distrust it.
Ave Satanas
Live for the journey, not the destination.
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to get permission.
Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Age teaches you many things....
Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
and always make sure that you can run faster than him in them too 😉
Only you decide how you're going to feel.
crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
speed is your friend
life is short so make it broad
it just went off in my hand
Just F'kin Do It
KISS
Easier to ask forgivness than permission. (learnt this to be true FAR too late in life)
You're only as good as your last gig.
...most importantly...
Treat others as you would have them treat you.
But also its opposite -
Treat others as they have treated you. With interest...

Had to wipe red wine from my screen. 😆
speed is your friend
I have oft been heard muttering this mantra on particularly gnarly downhill sections
"speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my friend, speed is my f......" *[i]jiggle, jiggle, smack, bleed[/i]* ".......aaaaaauuuuuuckkkkk, bollox!" 🙄
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Had to wipe red wine from my screen.
White wine in my case!
My two are:
Trust your instincts! And....
The truth will always prevail.
They've worked for me so far 😀
Fortune favours the brave. Normally followed by a very, very stupid action.
Shit happens when you party naked!
Oh and 'My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.'
Let life find me wanting
Do unto others, then split
Desperation makes fools of us all.
Shit or get off the pan
Honesty is the best policy
Be nice
"Mr Grenade is not my friend"
Nothing half arsed, it's full arsed or nothing!
It's better to beg forgiveness than ask permission.
Work to live, never the other way around.
