Here is a new one I found!
You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
This is very similar to another saying I use to hear but I cant remember what that one was.

Though not as colorful as some of the other quotes listed in this thread, I'll offer the following from my grandfather:
He used to tell me as a kid to keep in touch with Tiorio, or TIORIO, an acronym of "Think It Over, Reason It Out". Wise words. Another one he used to say: "A wise old sage once said, 'Be sure you're right, then go ahead.' He may have added this, to wit, 'Be sure you're wrong before you quit.'" And then there's one my dad used to say: "Thank God everybody's different. Because if everybody were the same, they'd all want to sleep with your mother!" My dad is a great man. Sometimes a little unconventional, but a great man nevertheless.
