By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Wherever you are - be all there.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
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.
