Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Know or listen to those who know.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Inconsiderate, rude behavior drives me nuts. And I guess the inconsiderate rudeness of social ineptitude definitely fuels my work.
