Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Know or listen to those who know.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
You made a lot of mistakes, and you wrote a lot of crap. But it was all part of the learning process.
