Well the first one that came to mind is:

"Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice"

But then Groucho came to my rescue:
"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend -- inside of a dog, it is too dark to read"
"I can't come to bed now, someone on the internet is wrong"<xkcd>

“Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the
intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well
preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways,
chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body
thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming
“WOO HOO what a ride!”

Just another war related quote for jbennet's taste:
Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.
