Self help books and motivation teachings are often full of b.s.. These tell the truth:

Some of those were downright overly cynical and pessimistic, but others were witty, such as these:

LONELINESS
If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone.

MISTAKES
It could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others.

MOTIVATION
If a pretty poster and a cute saying are all it takes to motivate you, you probably have a very easy job. The kind robots will be doing soon.

PERSPECTIVE
Less is more. Unless you're standing next to the one with more.
Then less just looks pathetic.

STUPIDITY
Quitters never win, winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots.

TRADITION
Just because you've always done it that way doesn't mean it's not incredibly stupid.
