Not that this necessarily helps you much, but as a groomsman I once received a flask that was engraved with the phrase "Pimpin' Ain't Easy".

Its overly long but is a great quote, I think.
"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." -Aristotle.

Maybe not perfectly suited to your needs though. I bet you could find an appropriate one here.
