What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
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.
