Always desire to learn something useful.
You never know what motivates you.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Who seeks shall find.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
It's always too early to quit.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Imagination! Imagination! I put it first years ago, when I was asked what qualities I thought necessary for success on the stage.
