Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Wherever you are - be all there.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
You never know what motivates you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I used to do skits for my mom... and I was always entertaining as a kid.
