Replying to "live life to the fullest" style qoutes.

I Need some good qoutes!!!
or words, or phrases,
stuff like, but better then...
-Amandla (african word for strength, referring more to will power and inner strength not physical)
-carpe diem (seize the day in Latin, but to over done I need something less... overdone)
-its a beautiful thing.  (just refering to life in general, so something like this would work)
-All things said and all things done, Life is short (for the point that life is short no matter what way you turn it, so make the most out of it)

iv been trying to figure out a qoute for a while that I really like, just about following your dreams/not letting things make you give up, living life to the fullest.
I want it for a possible tattoo, right now im leaning way more towards amandla, a friend of mine has it tattoo'd on her arm so it would be a connection with her, and i also really like the meaning. but I have no connections with africa, so if I can find something better i would like it.

so does NS have any fav qoutes about living life to the fullest?
