Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
It's always too early to quit.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
I loved my 17 years with R.E.M., but I'm ready to reflect, assess and move on to a different phase of my life. The four of us will continue our close friendship, and I look forward to hearing their future efforts as the world's biggest R.E.M. fan.
