After a storm comes a calm.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
It's always too early to quit.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I can, therefore I am.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Growing up in the '70s and '80s, science fiction and especially fantasy had such a stigma attached to them. I felt so punished and exiled for being devoted to these things.
