If you can dream it, you can do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Know or listen to those who know.
Well done is better than well said.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Have convictions. Be friendly. Stick to your beliefs as they stick to theirs. Work as hard as they do.
My experience has been that work is almost the best way to pull oneself out of the depths.
