Either you run the day or the day runs you.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Courage: Great Russian word, fit for the songs of our children's children, pure on their tongues, and free.
It was a time when only the dead smiled, happy in their peace.
