What is your favourite motto or saying? And Why?

"A teacher affects eternity. You can never tell when his influence stops." One of my faves. There's definitely more to learn, and learning by oneself is hard. To learn you have to communicate, to express what you've learned. And a teacher teaches you not to learn but to influence you, to help you communicate and let it out. And a teacher who has not imparted any knowledge to his students is no teacher at all. That is why we should strive to learn, for our teachers to be proud not only of us, but also of them, for they were able to impart knowledge, and thus fulfills the role of the teacher... ...Ooops...pretty off-topic eh? But I really liked that one. Don't know the exact words but yeah, I like it.

I don't quite know if I really have a favorite, or just one that, for the moment, seems to stick out or relate at the moment. What I currently like is the quote, "War has changed me." It is from a longer quote that actually came from the paintball war from the Ugly Betty series, but I feel like I can take those four words and make something important from it. I am not talking about war as in, "Bring in another tank, our enemies are growing stronger!" I am talking about personal wars, such as heartbreak, or huge obstacles in life.
