Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
You never know what motivates you.
After a storm comes a calm.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Well done is better than well said.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
I mean, it's the life lessons that I suppose you learn that nobody gets a free ride and that you do the best you can with the means that you can and try to open yourself to as much knowledge and all that that you can.
