If you've got a talent, protect it.
Know or listen to those who know.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
It's always too early to quit.
Well done is better than well said.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
I think one of the downsides of the sort of obsession with romantic love and personal fulfillment is that the plain fact of the matter is that those feelings don't last for ever and so they better be replaced and reinforced by things that do.
