To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
You never know what motivates you.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Know or listen to those who know.
I can, therefore I am.
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.
