Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Well done is better than well said.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you think you can do it, you can.
I found that it wasn't so oddball to like music and poetry and visual arts, they're kindred spirits.
