Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Wherever you are - be all there.
It's always too early to quit.
Well done is better than well said.
Know or listen to those who know.
Soon I knew the craft of experimental physics was beyond me - it was the sublime quality of patience - patience in accumulating data, patience with recalcitrant equipment - which I sadly lacked.
