iPod laser engravings?

I would like to purchase a Apple iPod music player.. but I can't decide what to engrave onto it. Do you guys have any suggestions?

I'm looking for quotes or lyrics or intersting phrases.
For example, I've considered "Mortigi Tempo" or "Nolite te bastardes carborundorum", 'cause it works both ways. But at the same time, it's kind of lame to put your favorite phrases on such a commercial product.
ie. 'OOo, look at this obscure phrase on my soulless electronic device!"

As a related question: What engravings do you have on your iPod?

EDIT, I apologize for contributing to today's mass quantity of iPod threads :-\
 
I was an idiot and didn't get mine engraved...even though it was FREE

But I guess since I use an iSkin it wouldn't be seen anyway
 
The funniest one I have seen said "If found unattended, avenge my death."

I had planned on getting "ArcadeStickMonk" engraved on my 4th Gen, but I ended up buying it in a store instead.

A good point, especially since my iPod is never without at least two forms of protection.

A Counter Showcase will display the back, doesn't protect the wheel though.

i'm looking for a phrase that's so obscure or lovable that the buyer will accept it.

EDIT:
k, i chose the atwood phrase.
the spacing just looks cool, ok? don't judge me!
