What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Leap, and the net will appear.
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.
