If you're going through hell, keep going.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I can, therefore I am.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
