Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Never complain and never explain.
You never know what motivates you.
Well done is better than well said.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
That's the way it is with poetry: When it is incomprehensible it seems profound, and when you understand it, it is only ridiculous.
