I have a little plaque on my wall that reads.........
Raising kids is like being pecked to death by a chicken.
(I have 4 children)
I also have a favorite response that I learned from my Dad. When my children tell me I "Have" to do something for them, I quote my Dad and tell them "All I "Have" to do is pay taxes and die."
I do not know where he got it, but it shuts the kids up right away.
I tell my daughter this one, which I think I found on these boards a while ago: "Your clothes should be tight enough to show you're a woman, but loose enough to show you're a lady".

i love this one!!
others that i like:
success is a journey, not a destination.
follow your dreams, for as you dream, so you shall become.
do not follow where a path may lead. go instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
the pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. the optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty.
the biggest mistake you can make is to be afraid of making one.
learn to laugh at yourself.
stretch outside of your comfort zone.
work smarter, not harder.
make your mistakes. learn from them. move on.
live with passion.
remember:
when it isn't working, be willing to change.
when it isn't broken, don't fix it.
when it doesn't feel right, be brave and rest it.
that if it were easy, everyone could do it.
life's circumstances are not always controlleable, but your attitude toward them is.
trust your instincts.
today, i smilied, and all at once things didn't look so bad. today, i shared with someone else, a bit of hope i had. today, i sang a little song, and felt my heart grow light, and walked a happy little mile, with not a cloud in sight. today, i worked with what i had, and longed for nothing more, and what had seemed like only weeds were flowers at my door. today, i loved a little more, complained a little less, and in the giving of myself... forgot my weariness
