If no one else does this, I 100% recommend keeping a quote board in the notes app on your phone for whenever your friends say things that you find quote-worthy. I personally have about 6 years' worth of quotes from college from all my friends, and it grows every day.
One of my personal favorites. A group of my friends and I were hiking and it was dead silent as we took everything in. Out of no where one of my friends stops, looks at us all and proclaims "Moss is nature's napkin," and then kept walking.
"I've got some Old Milwaukee, an ugly woman, and a E36 M3ty bag of pot. But since you left me, baby, things are lookin' up." -Rusty McHugh

"Why, is there someone you're good at talking to?"

Lucius Beebe
"Love many, trust few. And always paddle your own canoe."
"See, what's taking all the extra time here is figuring out the right way to use the wrong tools for the job."
Project cars and Daily drivers are like wifes and mistresses; both good at what they do and best if they never cross paths.

10. Keep your opinions to a minimum. It is not necessary for you to have an opinion on every public issue. Although you may be entitled to have an opinion, you probably are not qualified to have an opinion on most matters. Although middle-class America seems to require an opinion on everything, you will find it liberating to say the phrase “I don’t know enough about it to form an opinion.”

"Look at that daisy we just passed. It didn't kill me AND I'm not any stronger."
Touché, my daughter, touché.
Here are a pair of non-motivational quotes I seem to think about more and more:
We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think it is forever. -Carl Sagan
The real problem of humanity is that we have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions, and god-like technology. – E. O. Wilson
