Who seeks shall find.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
After a storm comes a calm.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
That something extra, I believe, is a certain humanity that comes from upbeat and positive human interest letters and success stories. Advertisers like to be associated with those qualities.
