Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Sometimes a noble failure serves the world as faithfully as a distinguished success.
For a poet to depict a poet in poetry is a hazardous experiment in regarding one's own trade a sense of humour and a little wholesome cynicism are not amiss.
