The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Well done is better than well said.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Only the educated are free.
My dad said to me growing up: 'When all is said and done, if you can count all your true friends on one hand, you're a lucky man.'
I grew up in Baltimore. And yes, I am a big sports fan, especially when it comes to my local teams.
