I need a good quote to put on my graduation open house invitations but I can't find anything that doesn't sound too corny. Anyone have any suggestions?

**Edit** I've looked at 10+ quotation sites and didn't find anything I liked. I'm asking for something that maybe isn't so conventional but good nonetheless.
 
I can imagine a world without war, a world without hate, and I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.
 
This one ought to get you noticed...

If you kill one man, you are an assassin. If you kill millions, you are a conqueror. If you kill everyone, you are a god. - Conrad Bland
 
how about eminem: "my music has a positive message and it is: FVCK YOU!!!"

or this one (don't know from whom, was the sig of another guy somewhere); "There's an empty spot I've always had inside me. I tried to fill it with family, religion, community service. But those were all dead-ends. I think this chair is the answer.?

or this: "Don't Hate Yourself... because no matter how hard you try there's always someone that does it better." - J.Symister 2002

Think of something yourself and make it original. Do you really want to do like everyone else and just find a quote online?

open your eyes. try to see the world from someone else's perspective. even if it scares you. even if you are certain you have all the answers. you don't. I don't. no one does.

In the arena of human life the honours and rewards fall to those who show their good qualities.
