The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Art is the unceasing effort to compete with the beauty of flowers - and never succeeding.
