What is your best quote that keeps you going when you are down?

No one owes you shit and no one gives a fuck.

Forgive my language but that quote alone is what keep me on my feet at all times. It's what makes me burn the night candle. Why I lose and still keep going.

You see, when you are hurt, you cry and hope someone take pity on you, or the gods will favour you. In as much as all this is possible but they are things that are base on hope and luck. No one actually owes you anything, not the government, not your parent, not your friends or enemies, not even the gods. They all help you in one way or another, but if they don't, will that stop the world from going forward?

And then most people spend time on the ground weeping because they feel people care or gives a fuck about them and their problem. Fine, people do care but they also have their own problem which comes first. It would only be selfish of you if you expect people to care about your problems than theirs, so if you don't do it, no one might do it for you.

If you need it done, do it.
