Only the educated are free.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Well done is better than well said.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Leap, and the net will appear.
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.
