This one does not have the humour that you asked for, but is one of my fav quotes ever.
"My power proceeds from my reputation, and my reputation from the victories I have won. My power would fail if I were not to support it with more glory and more victories. Conquest has made me what I am; only conquest can maintain me."
Napoleon Bonaparte

This isn't a funny quote but one I like. It's not word for word but it went something like this...
"There will be peace when the people of the world want it so badly, that their governments are going to have no choice but to give it to them."
-Dwight Eisenhower
I did look for the exact quote on the 'net but it was something like the one above.
