If you're going through hell, keep going.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Only the educated are free.
