No matter in life, the worst someone can say is no. My dad always instilled that in my life when struggling whether or not I wanted to apply to a certain college, ask a certain girl out etc, whats the worst that can happen, so you might as well give it a shot.

Another bit of wisdom that I recieved this past year while stressing over a work project from hell:

"What's the worst they can do to you? THEY (work) can't kill you or take your family from you, but if you keep on stresssing, YOU can do both."

I'm not sure who coined this phrase(Confucius maybe?), but I always liked it:

Surprised I havn't seen this one yet:

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Your actions are speaking so loudly I can't hear what your saying.

Beauty is only skin-deep but ugly goes to the bone.

Failure teaches success as long as you are willing to learn from it and don't stop trying.
