After a storm comes a calm.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Never complain and never explain.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
You never know what motivates you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
I once saw a picture in the paper of John Hegley with 'poet' written on his knuckles, and I thought that was pretty cool, so I was quite up front about it.
