If you think you can do it, you can.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Who seeks shall find.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Leap, and the net will appear.
