The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Never complain and never explain.
If you're going through hell, keep going.

I enjoy learning technical details.
