Either you run the day or the day runs you.
I can, therefore I am.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Never complain and never explain.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
After a storm comes a calm.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
It's always too early to quit.
Writing poetry makes you intensely conscious of how words sound, both aloud and inside the head of the reader. You learn the weight of words and how they sound to the ear.
