Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Creative risk taking is essential to success in any goal where the stakes are high. Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.
