Try Again
You got to get up in the morning and try again
Not tomorrow - do it today
Young or old, it don't matter man
Don't let your life slip away
You gotta take a chance - push yourself
Stand up for what you know is right
Don't take no sh*t from anyone
Let them know that you're ready to fight
from <<Try Again>> by The Spermbirds

my grandfather used to say this one all of the time...don't know where it originates from:
"Anything worth doing is worth doing correctly"
...some others off the top of my head I remember hearing a bunch
"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth"
"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"
"Beware of Greeks bearing gifts"
"He who smelt it dealt it"
As far as someone's previous question about the meaning of "a stitch in time saves nine", it's referring to the mending of something (the metaphor is about stitching up something that has begun to rip). Sometimes doing something small to fix something will save you a lot more time spent trying to fix it later.

You're beautiful, you're confusing
You're illogical, you're amazing
I've seen the world, it's overrated
Until You're everything, I have nothing
But an empty space (--by Jason Wade)
I just broke a personal vow of mine, but I think I can live with it.
