Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

After a storm comes a calm.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

You never know what motivates you.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
