Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
After a storm comes a calm.
You never know what motivates you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
I found that it wasn't so oddball to like music and poetry and visual arts, they're kindred spirits.
