To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Only the educated are free.
After a storm comes a calm.
Leap, and the net will appear.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
We may smile at these matters, but they are melancholy illustrations.
