What are three words to live by?

Asked by erichw1504 (26453points) March 17th, 2011

Give us three words to live by. It could be a motto, a live lesson, a phrase, or really just three separate words that are something one should consider when going through the journey that is life.

Let’s see your inner Confucius or inner comedian.

Three words; no more, no less.
