How about
"you have 1 mouth and 2 ears for a reason"
"If your gonna think... think BIG!"
"If you can't win, make the one ahead of you break the record!"
"run fast, hold high, and carry a big stick!!"
"Pole vaulters get high off of fiberglass."
"Sprinters are just pole vaulters who are affraid of heights."
"Gripped it and Ripped it"

Tell me if you like 'em! ;)
