To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Never complain and never explain.
I can, therefore I am.
After a storm comes a calm.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
