The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
You never know what motivates you.
It's always too early to quit.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
There were two sides to David Lean: on the one side, he was kind of a rather stiff, disciplined Englishman. And then he had this kind of romantic side to him. I think being true to both sides of your nature is important.
