Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
You never know what motivates you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Actually, I always dreamed about getting a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle in Olympic swimming. I always thought that would be the epic award in sports to get.
