Always desire to learn something useful.
You never know what motivates you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Because at bottom, I'm interested in fear, and in courage and cowardice and these are easier to get at through fiction, where you can enter people's heads.
