Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
It's always too early to quit.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
There is a peculiar burning odor in the room, like explosives. the kitchen fills with smoke and the hot, sweet, ashy smell of scorched cookies. The war has begun.
