The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Who seeks shall find.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Know or listen to those who know.
Leap, and the net will appear.
After a storm comes a calm.
As I grew up, I was continually to suffer hardships in different realms of life - in my family, in my relationship to Japanese society and in my way of living at large in the latter half of the twentieth century.
