Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
You never know what motivates you.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Never complain and never explain.
Always desire to learn something useful.
