Only the educated are free.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you think you can do it, you can.
You never know what motivates you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
All a musician can do is to get closer to the sources of nature, and so feel that he is in communion with the natural laws.
