This is one of my favourite quotations. There are a few others from different sources that I am fond of .
I list some of them below:

  • "There's ... winners and there's loosers ... the difference is ... winners don't give up!"
    - Little Miss Sunshine", Academy Award Winner, 2007
  • "Because sometimes truth is not good enough ... Sometimes people deserve more ..." - The Dark Knight
  • "The moral of the story is, trust the code, not the book" - Buck (after I struggled through a stupid build problem until he solved it for me)
  • "Sometimes to do what's right we have to be steady and give up the thing we want the most, even our dreams" - Spiderman -II
  • "Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved? ... " - Odysseus (voice over) in Troy, the adaptation of Illiad by Homer (2004 movie)
  • ""I've got to keep breathing. Because tomorrow, the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?" - Chuck (Cast Away, 2000)
  • " Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength."  - Arnold Schwarzenegger
  • "With great power, comes great responsibility" - Spiderman -I
  • "When I look back on it now, I am so glad that the one thing that I had in my life was my belief that everything in life is a learning experience, whether it be positive or negative. If you can see it as a learning experience, you can turn any negative into a positive." - Neve Campbell
  • "Everything that has a beginning has an end, neo ..." - Smith (repeating The Oracle's words), Matrix Revolutions.
