Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Well done is better than well said.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Only the educated are free.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Know or listen to those who know.
In regard to music, I just think that it's always best to have an attitude of being a perpetual student and always look to learn something new about music, because there's always something new to learn.
