Well done is better than well said.
After a storm comes a calm.
You never know what motivates you.
I can, therefore I am.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
