By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

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

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
