Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
You never know what motivates you.
After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
If you think you can do it, you can.
I was born in Norway, and when I was little I went to live in Detroit, Michigan. My father was a professor of philosophy at Wayne University, and my mother was also a teacher.
