Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Well done is better than well said.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
