Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Well done is better than well said.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
What I would say about Barney Eastwood is that when our relationship worked, it worked extremely well. He had a lot of strengths as a promoter and a manager.
