After a storm comes a calm.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Until women learn to want economic independence, and until they work out a way to get this independence without denying themselves the joys of love and motherhood, it seems to me feminism has no roots.
