I have another one in hebrew, it's from the one who died in Meron tragedy and wrote a poem to his friend the day before (don't remember his name a"h)
הקב"ה קובע את המצב
ואתה את המצב רוח

Translation - Hashem decides the matzav (situation), we decide the matzav ruach (the way we respond to it)

Sure!

Originally it's from the end of bentching when we say
נער הייתי גם זקנתי ולא ראיתי צדיק נעזב (I have been young and am now old, but I have never seen a righteous man abandoned)

So R' Shteinman took the language and changed it:
נער הייתי גם זקנתי ולא ראיתי מוותר מפסיד (I have been young and am now old, but I have never seen a "mevater" lose out from it)
A mevater is someone who gives up his rights on something for someone else so there'll stay peace.
