The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
I don't believe in art. I believe in artists.
I am still a victim of chess. It has all the beauty of art - and much more. It cannot be commercialized. Chess is much purer than art in its social position.
