If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Who seeks shall find.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
You have to do something in your life that is honorable and not cowardly if you are to live in peace with yourself, and for the firefighter it is fire.
