Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
I can, therefore I am.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
It's always too early to quit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I don't think of myself as a role model. I do try to live in a compassionate, considerate and positive way. The only advice I can offer is to find what you love to do, find the joy in it, and express yourself through your passion.
