Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Never complain and never explain.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
