Either you run the day or the day runs you.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
You never know what motivates you.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Wisdom and penetration are the fruit of experience, not the lessons of retirement and leisure. Great necessities call out great virtues.
If we mean to have heroes, statesmen and philosophers, we should have learned women.
