My favorite new one (yes, I saw it on Cod:MW2) is "Living well is the best revenge."
Others I like are "Brick walls are there for a reason: they let us prove how badly we want things." and "Raw fish, not as good as cooked cow."

walt has some good ones -
my faves, all from Thomas Jefferson, the best American this country has ever known:
"A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.”
“Dependence begets subservience and venality, suffocates the germ of virtue, and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition.”
“A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.”
“To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.”
“A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference.”
“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.”
“The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.”
“That government is best which governs the least, because its people discipline themselves.”
“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”
“Taste cannot be controlled by law.”
“No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.”
“I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.”
“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.”
“It is always better to have no ideas than false ones; to believe nothing, than to believe what is wrong.”
“Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.”
"Never spend your money before you have earned it."
“Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.”
“One man with courage is a majority.”

"Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.
Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.
We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!
Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!"
- President Thomas J. Whitmore
