Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Who seeks shall find.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
