The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
It's always too early to quit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Never complain and never explain.
Opera, next to Gothic architecture, is one of the strangest inventions of Western man. It could not have been foreseen by any logical process.
