The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
There are two which truly speak to me. One is a quote by Albert Einstein:
“Everybody is a genius. But, if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
And then there is one from one of my favorite web comics, xkcd:
“We’re grown-ups now and it’s our turn to decide what that means.”

Current favvy is
“Your god guarantees my insanity, but may I ask? Who guarantees your god’s sanity?”
“Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing.”
“I’m not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information”
My all time fav quote:
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
~Marianne Williamson
