Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Only the educated are free.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
After a storm comes a calm.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The friendship of Shostakovich cast a brilliant light over my whole life and whose spiritual qualities captured my soul once and for all time.
