"I will find away or make one." - Hannibal (right before he tried to cross the Alps with elephants that resulted in an animal casualty rate that would make the Tranch blush... but hey, at least one or two made it though.)

Not a quote per se, since this is a poem, but this poem really got into me the first time I read it. And makes me want to cry everytime I read it.
"If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master,
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!"
- Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)

Two, actually:
"Impossible is just a word to let people feel good about themselves when they quit." - Vyse, Skies of Arcadia
"At times the world can seem an unfriendly and sinister place, but believe that there is much more good in it than bad. All you have to do is look hard enough. And what might seem to be a series of unfortunate events may, in fact, be the first steps of a journey." - Lemony Snicket

"We're on dangerous ground right now, because of our secrets and our lies. They are practically what define us. When the truth offends, we lie and lie until we can no longer remember it is even there, but it is still there. Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid."

Hate! Hate! Hate! An emotion as pure as it is deep.
Hate! Hate! Hate! Let it flow, let it run free.

"Life can only understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards." - Soren Kierkegaard
At 40-years-old, this quote makes more sense to me everyday. There's too much shit from my past that didn't make any sense when I was growing up, but nowadays I understand it better. Actually, and more accurately, I understand some parts better than others. There are other things I realize I'll never understand no matter how much I brood on them.
