My mother used to say, "sit up and die right." I have no idea what it means, but it occurs to me sometimes when what I need is a swift kick in the pants.

Also, something something: "be strong because you never know who is taking inspiration from you." I read this within the last month and damned if I can remember where I even read it!

My mom used to say (way back in the day), panties up, dress down.

I used to cringe when she'd say that before I'd go out with my friends. Not so much inspirational as safe instruction.

She was right.
