It's a Zen Buddhist koan (if I remember right), so I don't know the author:
'There's no need of fish in a pond without water.'

'Who want's to do, will always find a solution. Who Doesn't want to do, will always find an excuse.'

Quote in sig.
Also, "Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace." A saying my friend told me, attributed to Buddha himself.

At first I read this as "Going to war with France is like going deer hunting with your accordion."Brethern wrote:"Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without your accordion." --Norman Schwartzkopf
Since we're going for immaturity.
In retrospect though, that's still pretty accurate.

Just for optimism's sake...
"Men may seem detestable as joint stock-companies and nations; knaves, fools, and murderers there may be; men may have mean and meagre faces; but man, in the ideal, is so noble and so sparkling, such a grand and glowing creature, that over any ignominious blemish in him all his fellows should run to throw their costliest robes." -Herman Melville, 'Moby Dick'

"Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it." ~ Mohandas Gandhi
That's right, kids. Everything you accomplish in life is entirely useless in retrospect. But doing it is the important part.
Also, if I may be pompous, here's one I coined back in high school:
"In hindsight, there were better ideas. But in foresight, not all of them were as good."

Some good ones are:
"In each human heart are a tiger, a pig, an ass and a nightingale. Diversity of character is due to their unequal activity."
-Ambrose Bierce
"Art is the lie that tells the truth."
-Pablo Picasso
"We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started."
-Henry Ward Beecher
"The limits of my language means the limits of my world."
&
"A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that's unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push."
-Ludwig Wittgenstein
And on the more humorous side:
"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
-Benjamin Franklin
"Those who forget the pasta are doomed to reheat it."
(one of my long-time favorites)

Damn, we're doomed. I miss the Rolling Stones.
To make ammends, I'll quote something awesome:
"Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run"
I'm also changing the game a bit; instead of telling who this quote is from, you have to guess. No googling or I'll find you :3.
