Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
