Post Are there any *Inspirational* FOL Quotes?

I hafta do this project and come up with an inspirational quote. It would be awesome if it came from FOL (or any of the FOL actors' real quotes). I know most are sarcastic remarks & jokes, but maybe there's something that Mrs. G said once or something like that.... Thanx!!

Do you remember "Sweet Sorrow?" Cause Ilike what Mrs.G. says at the VERY END of it, when she talks to Jo, about the ring that "Eddie" gave her! Here's the scene:
Jo: I can't even look at it.(she's talking about the ring of course)
Mrs.G:I know, but one day, this ring will give you pleasure.You'll show it to your grandchildren and smile, and tell them all about your first love.
(Then Jo starts to cry, Mrs.G. kisses the top ofher head and that's the end of the ep, but what Mrs.Garrett says always helps me remember that when there are bad times, you'll look at them later and say, oh my gosh look at all I learned from that or that really made me a better person, or something liek that.)(sorry if it's too late, I haven't been to the boards for awhile!)

I don't remember which episode that Blair said that in, but it is not just a quote, it is called the Serenity Prayer.

"Grand opening" It was when they were thinking of closing.Or when Mrs.Garrett was taken to jail.

I'm sure this is gonna sound stupid but
I don't even know what a "serenity prayer" is. But, I do know the words pray and prayer, but that's it.

I don't know if it's inspirational or not, but I love Mrs. G's quote she told Molly: "Let it out, let it all out!"


------------------
Truvy: I kind of like hiring somebody with a past.
Clairee: She can't be more than eighteen. She hasn't had time to have a past.
Truvy: Oh get with it, Clairee. This is the eighties. If you can achieve puberty, you can achieve a past.

Teeny: Chrissy, truth or dare?
Chrissy: Truth.
Teeny: Have you ever been french kissed?
Chrissy: Are you kidding? I don't want to get pregnant!

I like the quote from Blair in "Ain't Ms. Beholden" where Jo has to get a scholarship to stay in school. Blair says, "You owe the gas company. You owe Bloomingdale's. You don't owe your friends."

Yea, it is a quote that Blair says here's the scene ("Grand Opening")

Blair:God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference
Jo (or somebody else I don't remember exactly who said it, but i think it was jo): Where did you get that?
Blair: (points) from that plaque over there!

It's funny......
