Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
After a storm comes a calm.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Well done is better than well said.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
I found that it wasn't so oddball to like music and poetry and visual arts, they're kindred spirits.
