Cliches, Sayings, or Inspirational Phrases that You Hate

[AgentZero]

What are some cliches and sayings that you hate and why? It could be because you don't think they're true, they don't make sense to you, whatever reason really.

 

[tireless drive]

"you can take a horse to the track but you can't make them race"

 

[Top Boy]

 
"you can take a horse to the track but you can't make them race"

"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink."

You can pull life gems from most quotes, I think it's overuse that plays them out.

"Time heals all wounds"

Doubt it.

 

[bendover]

"Age ain't nothing but a number"
Calm your old/young butt down lol

 

[isu 42]

[slighted]

- "It is what it is."

- "If you love her, let her go."

- "What does that mouth do?"

I meant sayings as in cliches or mantras, but I do hate these as well

This isn't necessarily relating to cliches but I just hate all inspirational quotes in general.

I don't mean to throw shade cause those ain't my intentions but they're all just a bunch of words that sound really good together. It's a cheap way to sound intelligent.
People never live by them.

I hope this relevant enough for the thread so I don't sound too crazy.

100% relevant, in fact I'll add that to the thread title.

"Time heals all wounds"

Doubt it.

It's supposed to be this:

They say Time heals all wounds, but time is what took my tomorrow's and turned them into my yesterday's.

Meaning:

Take the necessary time to grieve/mourn, but realize you still have your life to live and time spent wastefully is time you'll never get back.

I stand by a majority of inspirational/motivational quotes, but I feel that when people base their lives around them is where they go wrong. Their meant to give you a kickstart, you gotta keep the momentum going.

I dislike the word **** and also when people say strenth instead of strenGth.
