Those are funny! Wish I had one along those lines. My favorite for years has been:

Let your life lightly dance upon the edges of time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
--Pabindranath Tagore

So I guess agree with seeing life as a lighter thing and not taking oneself too seriously.

(Though I happen to know someone who does not like this Tagore quote - thinks it's a bit syrupy, I suppose. )
