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.

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.

Be who you are and say what you feel,

Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Age teaches you many things....

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...

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!" 🙄

The truth will always prevail.

They've worked for me so far 😀

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.
