Translate your personal motto into Latin

This is cool: Translate your personal motto into Latin (or anything you want into Latin). For example, this blog's tagline "Technologies that make life wonderful" becomes "Technologos ut planto vita mirus". Or the first part of my personal mission statement "Engineering beautiful software" becomes "Condita decorus progressio" (well, "making beautiful programs" :-).

Is est mirus!

    No guarantees as to accuracy, but anyway:

    "The heart that loves is forever young."
    "Pectus pectoris ut diligo est in perpetuum tener."

    "All or nothing."
    "Totus vel nusquam."
