Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Never complain and never explain.
Who seeks shall find.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Well done is better than well said.
That's the way it is with poetry: When it is incomprehensible it seems profound, and when you understand it, it is only ridiculous.
