Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
You never know what motivates you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
It's always too early to quit.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Literature boils with the madcap careers of writers brought to the edge by the demands of living on their nerves, wringing out their memories and their nightmares to extract meaning, truth, beauty.
