To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Well done is better than well said.
After a storm comes a calm.
Never complain and never explain.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The military is a very cool world to write about. I went down to Ft. Benning, Ga., for military training, and I learned a lot about soldiers and officers and why they joined up and what their life has been like.
