By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

It's always too early to quit.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you think you can do it, you can.
