Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
It's always too early to quit.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
I can, therefore I am.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
As I've grown - dare I say it - older, I had hopes of indulging my dreams of being a sailor.
