Anyone have inspirational poker quotes?For me, I think Sun Tzu gave a great quote that can be applied to poker: "Appear weak when you are strong and appear strong when you are weak" Also one from Bruce Lee "Do or do not, there is no try and finnally one to get us back on earth:" "Most of the money you'll win at poker comes not from the brilliance of your own play, but from the ineptitude of your opponents."

Here is one from one of my favourite movies "Top Gun": Better to retire and save your aircraft than push a bad position.
Don't push a bad position. Very simple and applies itself to so many situations in life, be it poker, daily driving, dealing with your boss, dealing with your spouse. Don't push a bad position. Always try to operate from a position of strength.

I love the quotes, when I wake up I read some quotes or remember some of what I heard yesterday and it always helps me in my day.
when you play poker you need to be able to manage your emotions, so that you can play effectively and using quotes to remind us of that is a good start.
