Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Know or listen to those who know.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Composers shouldn't think too much - it interferes with their plagiarism.
