Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
After a storm comes a calm.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you think you can do it, you can.
As an inspiration to the author, I do not think the cat can be over-estimated. He suggests so much grace, power, beauty, motion, mysticism. I do not wonder that many writers love cats I am only surprised that all do not.
