1: "I do the best I know how, the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing it to the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me will not amount to anything. If the end brings me out all wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." -Abraham Lincoln

2: "Existing just to make the infinite possible." -...one of my friends

Earlier I was looking for quotes to describe myself with for my yearbook; I've basically narrowed it down to these two.

The first one is pretty long, but it seems to have more meaning in it.

Yeah, I like the first one better--but it seems kind of long for a yearbook.

I don't...really get the second one. It sounds like one of those things that is supposed to be really deep but doesn't quite make sense/is kind of silly and trite. Or it sounds like an unfinished though.

But you should just do the one that means more to YOU. Because obviously I don't know you, or your friend, or the context of the quote. *shrug*

The second one is good, but given that existing is merely incredibly improbable, it is not wholly accurate.

I like it more than the first one, simply because it's catchy. A sign of the times - Lincolns one is the better.

The first one has already easily withstood the test of time.
