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.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
You never know what motivates you.
After a storm comes a calm.
Who seeks shall find.
Know or listen to those who know.
I'm vulnerable to criticism. Any artist is, because you work alone in your studio and, until recently, critics were the only way you'd get any feedback.
