If you've ever seen this movie, it's probably your favorite quote as well. "For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of, and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again." * -- The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button Video narration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrKB6SGFPu8&feature=youtube_gdata_player

My favorite quote is: My Mama always told me life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get. (Forrest Gump)
"First bitter, than sweet"-Chinese Proverb. This quote means that one must suffer first and work hard(bitter) and enjoy the reward later of what you worked for (sweet).
