The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
It's always too early to quit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Only the educated are free.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
After a storm comes a calm.
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.
