Wise words

Almost every day I read my horoscope. Usually it's all nonsense of course. Like yesterday, it said it was a lucky day and I could rest and take it easy, while I had an exam.
The exam was rather depressing, too hard and with mean trick questions, so I didn't enjoy yesterday all that much! Horoscopes are stupid.

But I think it wouldn't harm anyone if horoscopes were more like general wisdom. I would much rather read a clever phrase every day, than have some fortune teller predict my future wrongly. (Like the hint/tip when logging in on WoW, for the nerds.)

Soon my website will be featuring such a device, I think. It would monthly pick some phrases from it's database and assign them to signs, or something. Maybe I wont use horoscope signs though (pisces, ares, etc.) but make up my own system. It will be fun building it and putting wise words in it's database.

Any suggestions for wise words are welcome, preferably in English. I was thinking along the lines of Mark Twain quotes, bathroom tiles, lyrics, small poems, etc...
