I always enjoy seeing what people come up with when asked to post a favorite quote, so I figure we should see what MTC heads can come up with.

Here are two to get us started:
"Once the game is over, the King and the Pawn go back in the same box." --Italian Proverb

"When you are born, you cry, and the world rejoices. When you die, you rejoice, and the world cries." --Tibetan Buddhist saying

"Throwing away the alarm clock my father always said, "early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." It was lights out at 8 p.m. in our house and we were up at dawn to the smell of coffee, frying bacon and scrambled eggs. My father followed this general routine for a lifetime and died young, broke, and, I think, not too wise. Taking note, I rejected his advice and it became, for me, late to bed and late to rise. Now, I'm not saying I've conquered the world but I've avoided numberless early traffic jams, bypassed some common pitfalls and have met some strange, wonderful people one of whom was myself -- someone my father never knew."
