Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
It's always too early to quit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Know or listen to those who know.
Who seeks shall find.
