A few of my favorites I picked up after I put the plug in the jug:

One day at a time

Good judgment comes from experience; experience comes from bad judgment

When you get to the end of your rope and don?t know what to do, tie a knot in it and hang on

Life?s easier when I get out of myself and get into others

Live life on life?s terms
