You never know what motivates you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Only the educated are free.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Poetry criticism at its worst today is mean in spirit and spiteful in intent, as if determined to inflict the wound that will spur the artist to new heights if it does not cripple him or her.
