Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I can, therefore I am.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Wherever you are - be all there.
