Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
It's always too early to quit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Know or listen to those who know.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
I had this really great amazing thing happen where I almost finished the book and I really needed to come up with an ending and I decided to go back and re-read the book and see if I could come up with an ending.
