What is the most insipid inspirational phrase you can think of?

There is a school in my local area who have a large banner proudly displaying the motto 'Become who you are'. I doubt that would have the power to inspire anybody. Become who you are - I already am who I am. That was a short trip!

So anybody have anything better, a more nauseatingly useless inspirational phrase? Where is it and why do you hate it?

    "Be yourself" is about the worst advice you can give some people. ~Tom Masson~

    I disagree with this quote... I think that "being yourself" is a good thing... if everybody was the same, the world would be a dull & boring place... That is why every single person is different in this world and has their own personality... let your light shine no matter what your personality is... each person has good and bad things about themself, but learn to accept who you are and to only "be yourself"
