Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
Music is not math. It's science. You keep mixing the stuff up until it blows up on you, or it becomes this incredible potion.
