The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Every time we walk along a beach some ancient urge disturbs us so that we find ourselves shedding shoes and garments or scavenging among seaweed and whitened timbers like the homesick refugees of a long war.
