I think a great saying is
'I haven't failed I've just found 10,000 ways that don't work.'

I also like
'Before you critisize someone walk a mile in their shoes that way when they get angry you are a mile away and they have no shoes.'

But something I say a lot is 'What are you doing?' like the way the cartoon character Dexter from Dexter's laboratory says. I say it to my dad all the time.
