Most people will state one as a statement of a core belief at times. Maybe it's associated with the schools they attended or through self descovery.
My personal maxim is from a Latin translation which is : 'he who stands still , losses ground' .
Why?. In a nutshell, procrastinanion is an active state. If one avoids change , it will occur regardless, often in a direction one would not wish .
I would be interested to hear yours and why.

I like them, and think they are very thought provoking however !
I get bored of all the people who quote them in an effort to impress or portray an image to influence what others think of them.
People who wear no fear t-shirts and bold statements etc etc etc... Just get on with it instead of wasting time thinking about what others think about you ? |

Valid points. Only of use if you intend to adhere to the principe of the statement . T-shirt maxims and statements , well, maybe most don't really follow them but like the idea.
I have a Primark t shirt with CheGuevara on it, now there's a contradiction in terms. 
The old Nike ' just do it' is one of my personal favourites, though not the company. |

"True, and I can think of loads of motifs that inspire, but (need to breathe more) its become very superficial and more of a fashion statement."
The popularity or, for that matter , the unpopularity of a statement or maxim has no direct affect on its intrinsic value. My opinion. |
