Death:
"Grief and loss are probably the most fearful creatures that exist. But loss shouldn't be a fearful creature. It should be a creature of wisdom. It should teach us not to fear that tomorrow may never come, but live fully, as though the hours are melting away like seconds. Loss should teach us to cherish those we love, to never do anything that will result in regret, and to cheer on tomorrow with all of its promises of greatness. It's easy and un-extraordinary to be frightened of life. It's far more difficult to arm yourself with the good stuff despite all the bad and step foot into tomorrow as an everyday warrior."
— Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Difficult Times for both maybe. The first one is more of a motivating uplifting one though.

I was once quoted on a website for something i said regarding my writing and storytelling:
"Wieso Witze schreiben? Die Welt und ihre Bewohner geben genug Gelegenheit um zu lachen. Es ist zwar nicht immer witzig, aber auf jeden Fall meist lächerlich."
"Why write comedy? The World and its inhabitants give enough occasions to make us laugh. It's not always funny tough, but surely almost always ridiculous"

One I like to remember I heard in Fallout: New Vegas:
Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.
I was unable to find who really said it, it appears it's credited to several people.
Another one I remember from a rather cheesy movie (The Mist), but it's so damn true:
As a species, we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?

"If you're doing what everyone else is doing, you're doing it wrong" - Casey Neistat. Words to live by if you're in the creation business. But you can apply it to pretty much anything else.

Well, couldn't take the first one which came to my mind since it has been rephrased in the "official" translation (liked the fan translation waaayyy better). So I will take another one by the same character (for the slim chance you will plan to ever read Tower of God I will hide it since it is a massive story spoiler):
"I promise, that I'll grant your wishes when I become the head of the Khun family. In exchange I ask you for one thing. To be the boundary that protects Rachel. Always help her. Be nice to here and 'pretend' to be friendly. But remember. Don't let your guards down. Don't think she's your friend. So that you can ignore her screams when the time comes. Hate her. Because - she's the girl who killed my best friend." - Khun Aguero Agnis, TOG
And then something more cheesy:
"Today is a gift. That's why they call it the present." - Don't remember where i got this from

Indeed :D On a somewhat unrelated sidenote I like Katee Sackhoff but Starbuck would be to butch for me :D
I'm not sure if it's sound as iconic to a native speaker but "So say we all." was another great one that touched me everytime. The german version sounds really lame in comparison.

Or a little bit longer:
"I'm the Doctor. I'm a Time Lord. I'm from the planet Gallifrey in the Constellation of Kasterborous. I'm 903 years old, and I'm the man who's gonna save your lives and all six billion people on the planet below. You got a problem with that?"
