I have heard the saying lots of times but never as a motto or at the beginning of each meeting. Every meeting is different though and I have found differences in states and towns to. Like AA meetings in Michigan are different than what I am used to in CA.
I think it is really more of a goal than something you should have always lived up to or can even live up to today. Many people in Alanon cannot live up to that standard. It is the goal we strive for understanding we are not perfect and will fail at times.
