Meaningful Signature File Quotes

There are many entertaining and powerful quotes in circulation. I often find in correspondence that individuals include such quotes as part of their signature file (some applications allow for the rotation of quotes). Here is a list of a few of my favorite quotes, along with the name of who is responsible for the words of wisdom. I am interested in any other moving quotes as well (with the author's name as well):

"The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad." -- Salvador Dali (1904 - 1989)

"There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line." -- Oscar Levant (1906 - 1972)

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -- Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation. It is better be alone than in bad company." -- George Washington (1732-1799)

"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new." -- Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

"He was so learned that he could name a horse in nine languages; so ignorant that he bought a cow to ride on." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

"Don't find a fault. Find a remedy." -- Henry Ford (1863-1947)

"Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." -- Salvador Dali (1904 - 1989)

"Many go fishing all their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after." -- Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

"The quality of an individual is reflected in the standards they set for themselves." -- Ray Kroc (1902-1984)

"Blessed is he that expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

"It has long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things." -- Leonardo da Vinci (1452 – 1519)

"The function of muscle is to pull and not to push, except in the case of the genitals and the tongue." -- Leonardo da Vinci (1452 – 1519)

"Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions." -- Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

Some of my favorite quotes:
--
The computer can't tell you the emotional story. It can give you the exact
mathematical design, but what's missing is the eyebrows.
--
Where ever you're going, don't walk the first.
If you do, people will think you know where you're going.
--
Anything played wrong twice in a row is the beginning of an arrangement.
--
You can't be a Real Country unless you have a BEER and an
airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team
or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a BEER.
--
I'll do the stupid thing first and then you shy people follow...
