1SG Walter Craig - my father always told me to never start a fight but if one did start to be sure to finish it.

I have two, for now, and they're from a 1986 John Carpenter movie, Big Trouble in Little China:
1. (Character) Wang Chi, played by Dennis Dun:
Here's to the Army and Navy and the battles they have won; here's to America's colors, the colors that never run.
2. (Character) Jack Burton, played by Kurt Russell:
May the wings of liberty never lose a feather.

I don't know about motivate, but the following have guided me.

John 3:16-17

Everybody has a purpose in life; for some it's being a bad example. (Coe's corollary to Murphy's Law)

First reports are seldom accurate. (said by many great leaders including Colon Powell)

If you completed the work, then you have a process; even if it's a poor process.

Nobody survives a ground accident. (well known fact among Air Force pilots that damaging an aircraft while it's on the ground can be a career ending event)

Useless things: fuel in the storage tank, runway behind you, altitude above you. (another Air Force pilot maximum)

As an instructor pilot, the student pilot stops learning when you start.

Remember today's competitor may be tomorrow's subcontractor. (explained to me early in my private sector career)

My all time favorite from 1SG Alfonso Lee...… You gotta be mobile, agile and hostile, you gotta stay ready so you don't waste no time gettin' that way.

Too many to list but a continuing favorite = *ICT=P*

In this movie when TSHTF they got the job done! Although billed as a comedy the movie has many subtle life lessons and classic one liners applicable anywhere.
