The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
I can, therefore I am.
It's always too early to quit.
Poetry is an art, the easiest to dabble in, but the hardest to reach true excellence.
