You can polish a turd, but it's still a turd.

More f'd up than a soup sandwich

There is just too many idioms to pick from. Songs writers and philosophers alike have put forth an amazing amount of figurative sentences to live by in the past couple thousand years.

I will quote honest Abe on this one: " It is your own resolution to succeed which is more important than everything else."

Then we can get into Einstein: "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

And finally Kelis: "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, they're like, it's better than yours, damn right its better than yours, i could teach you, but I'd have to charge."

Translation: "My frozen dairy treat brings all the male gender to the grassy area in the front of my residence. They say it is superior to yours. Yes, they are correct, it is far superior than yours. I could pass along this knowledge, but there would be a fee."

I have seen some great ones on your sigs. My favorite, i think, being: "If your in control then your not going fast enough." --Andretti

Or: "I plan to live forever, so far, so good."

I think somebody had one that said: "If you always do what you have always done then you will always get what you have always got."
I put that one on my myspace.

Sorry i do not remember who these ones belong to i am just pulling them off the top of my head.

There is really tons of phrases to choose from. If you could memorize all of them you could live your whole life using only figurative speech lol.
