Great quotes that you like

I'm one of those people who always likes reading good quotes, whether they be funny, inspirational, etc...

What is one of your favorite quotes and why?

I'll start, though mine is in French. "On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'important est invisible pour les yeux." It's from the book The Little Prince. "You can only truly see with your heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes." (This isn't the translation that is normally used, but most of the translations I've seen are crummy anyhow.)

It was the one quote in the book that I liked when I read it the first time, but it has always stuck with me.
