Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Well done is better than well said.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
There's one more thing I want to say. It's a touchy subject. Black beauty. Black sensuality. We live in a culture where the beauty of black people isn't always as celebrated as other types. I'd like to help change that if I can!
