By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Well done is better than well said.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Who seeks shall find.
You never know what motivates you.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
People wish to be poets more than they wish to write poetry, and that's a mistake. One should wish to celebrate more than one wishes to be celebrated.
Poetry is a matter of life, not just a matter of language.
