I noticed MJ changed his avatar and it displays the following quote.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Friedrich Nietzsche

That's gold.

I figured a "Quote of the Day - QOTD" thread would be a good thing to start. It might even rank high in Google.

My favorite quote is a Robert Frost one; it is not related to the fastlane or receiving money, but here it is:

A mother takes twenty years to make a man of her boy, and another woman makes a fool of him in twenty minutes.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Theodore Roosevelt

Another one I like:

"You don't need a million dollar idea, you need a one dollar idea that a million people will buy."

For those of you searching for that million or billion dollar idea, which is really preventing you from getting started.

Look at life as a game where your objective is to win your freedom.

You begin the game enslaved, ordained to servitude sanctified by culture, tradition, and social mores.

Your objective in the game is to escape enslavement by sorting out the rules and propaganda that govern the game, which to ignore, which to leverage, and which to defy. In this game you collect experience points (failures, successes), gold (money), tools, assets, and tweak your character skills (learning new things).

Begin knowing that your knowledge of this game is half the battle -- those trapped in the game have no idea they're being gamed.

Simple, but very powerful:

"If you believe it - you can achieve it" - I don't know whether this quote exists somewhere, it just sounds right to me :)
