If you've got a talent, protect it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Know or listen to those who know.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Well done is better than well said.
It's always too early to quit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
All this happened, more or less. The war parts, anyway, are pretty much true.
