The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I can, therefore I am.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
