Pick the third quote.
Whatever that turns out to be is the tagline for the movie poster of your life-story movie.
[Full Disclosure: I cheated like whoa on this one. I kept getting quotes from recent movies I've never seen because the television ads for them bored me, and TV shows and currently-running webcomics. And I dunno... using a quote from someone else who's still alive and kicking for a tagline for my biopic just feels wrong.]
What I finally settled on is this: "Patience is a flatterer, sir, and an ass, sir." Aphra Behn
I'm not sure what that means ... But it's pithy, and has a fun verbal rhythm. Is she talking about Patience as the personification of a state of mind, or an individual character who happens to be named Patience? ;-)
