Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
You never know what motivates you.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
In the back of your mind, when you say you want to write music for the movies, you're saying that you want a big house, a big car and a boat. If you just wanted to write music, you could live in Kansas and do it.
