Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Well done is better than well said.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Only the educated are free.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
After a storm comes a calm.
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.
