If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Leap, and the net will appear.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.
I never expected any sort of success with 'Mockingbird'... I sort of hoped someone would like it enough to give me encouragement.
