To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Only the educated are free.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
It's always too early to quit.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Well done is better than well said.
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.
