It's always too early to quit.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Know or listen to those who know.
After a storm comes a calm.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Working with people, the musical part is one thing but the personal part is totally different and just as critical. If the friendship is there and it's a lasting friendship, then it will take care of itself.
