Anything from Les Brown but his version of this motto in particular:

https://youtu.be/upZPvz5qpKA?t=47m38s

 

"If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it,

to work day and night for it,

to give up your time, your peace, and your sleep for it

If all that you dream and scheme is about it

and life seem useless and worthless without it

and if you'd gladly sweat for it and fret for it and plan for it

and lose all your terror of the opposition for it

and if you simply go after this thing that you want

with all of your capacity, strength and sagacity

faith, hope, and confidence

and stern pertinacity

if neither cold, poverty, famish, or gaunt

sickness or pain or body and brain can keep you away from the thing that you want

if dogged and grim you besiege and beset it

with the help of god you'll get it."

"It's vital to remember who you really are.  It's very important.  It isn't a good idea to rely on other people or things to do it for you, you see.  They always get it wrong." - Rincewind, from Terry Pratchett's Sourcery

"...my respect always goes to the cool, sure, impersonal, delicately poised feline who minds his business and never slobbers—the aristocratic, epicurean philosopher who knows what he wants and tells interlopers to go to hell."

- H.P. Lovecraft (he really liked cats)

One of my personal favorites:

"If you're going through hell, KEEP GOING"

by Churchhill, because everything Churchhill says is a good quote XD
