I can, therefore I am.
Well done is better than well said.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Leap, and the net will appear.
However, if a poem can be reduced to a prose sentence, there can't be much to it.
Well, if this is poetry, I'm certainly never going to write any myself.
