What's a phrase that you live by?

There are a lot of phrases that exist about life. It seems like at some point or another everyone has one. In a nutshell, what would you say is a motto that you really like, or something that describes your view on life? I'd say mine would be "keep it real" what's yours?

    A phrase? One? That's so cruel. Especially since I have like 4 billion and one to live by. Okay realistically about 10-20. Here's one worthy of mentioning since I actually -have- been living by it for around a decade.

    Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect.

    "If at first you don't succeed, cheat. then lie"

    Haha, no I'm kidding.

    Well, Winston Churchill once visited a place called South Africa during the Apartheid era. He was walking with a general Smuts. A black guy walked by and greeted them by politely smiling, tipping his hat and saying "good day, sirs"
    Churchill saw that Smuts didn't even look the black man's way.
    Churchill then walked to the black man, took off his own hat and shook the man's hand whilst politely greeting him. When Churchill, or C-Dawg, got back to Smuts, Smuts told him this:

    "Mister Churchill, we don't do that over here"

    Referring to the fact that white people aren't friendly with black people there.

    To which C-Dawg replied (and this reply shook me to my core, love it):

    "General. Far be it from me to allow a black man outclass me in manners."

    On my deathbed, I will not regret things I've done, but those I did not do.

      If you love something lock it in the basement so nobody else can take it or it doesn't run away or it cant change its mind...
