"You're all gonna die. Only question is how you check out. You want it on your feet, or on your knees, begging? I ain't much for begging. Nobody ever gave me nothin" - lights a fire in my belly every single day. (source: Alien 3. Go ahead and laugh.)
“Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live…at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies, that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take OUR FREEDOM!!

Did some googling and this one has a very far reach with a lot of people in history. Fascinating. Thank you for the education!
Mine is “this too shall pass…”, and it helps me because I know with my experience in LIFE that it is possible to go through the pain and come out on the other side again.
