What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
You never know what motivates you.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Know or listen to those who know.
Only the educated are free.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
When I was younger I probably didn't understand something basic about tact, but I think it kept faint-hearted people at arm's distance and that's not such a bad thing, because life is short and I know the kind of people I want to work with.
