Ask HN: What are you Words of Wisdom?
Curious what favorite quotes folks around here live by, often think about, or repeat to themselves on a daily basis.
Even if it's only "a favorite", what are yours?
I've amassed a few on my user profile here, and I always keep a ~/quotes.txt on my machines (though I'm not quite organized enough to periodically sync them to a central place).
I'll appreciate any indulgence you afford me and gems you share :)
Thank you!
