Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you think you can do it, you can.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
I dropped out of school for a semester, transferred to another college, switched to an art major, graduated, got married, and for a while worked as a graphic designer.
