You never know what motivates you.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Only the educated are free.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I can, therefore I am.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
After a storm comes a calm.
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.
