What are your favorite quotes?

For example, I used

as my email signature quote.

Well one of them I know off the top of my head is

"Lasagna is just spaghetti flavored cake" - Unknown

I have a ton of other quotes but none pop into my mind just now

"We are creative creatures." - Unknown. Saw it on a dA tshirt way back and it stuck. The image was a hand drawing and it was made out of those words.
“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world." - Albert Einstein
