Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Well done is better than well said.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Know or listen to those who know.
You never know what motivates you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Women didn't want to be on the stage with other women because they didn't want their bodies to be compared. They didn't want another female act opening for them because of this weird competitive and tokenistic attitude.
