Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Never complain and never explain.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
It's always too early to quit.
You never know what motivates you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I can only point out a curious fact. Year after year the Nobel Awards bring a moment of happiness not only to the recipients, not only to colleagues and friends of the recipients, but even to strangers.
