Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Only the educated are free.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
You never know what motivates you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If you think you can do it, you can.
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.
