You never know what motivates you.
Leap, and the net will appear.
It's always too early to quit.
Always desire to learn something useful.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
It was a fantastic learning experience and OK, I got slammed because I wasn't Audrey Hepburn but you could have predicted that, really, if you'd opened your eyes wide enough.
