I can, therefore I am.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

If you can dream it, you can do it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
I was an organizer in the Food, Agricultural and Tobacco Workers Union down in North Carolina.
What motivated me? My mother. My mother was an immigrant woman, a peasant woman, struggled all her life, worked in the garment center.
