Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Never complain and never explain.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
I can, therefore I am.
It's hard now to imagine that kind of travel and the daily tasks they simply took for granted. If a wagon axle broke, you had to stop and carve a new one. To cross a river, you sometimes had to build a raft.
