Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
After a storm comes a calm.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
You never know what motivates you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Never complain and never explain.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Speaking from my experience as a person involved for a long time in building the European Union, it is important to have patience and efforts to build a community of nations.
