By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I've done an informal, anecdotal survey about marriage, and I've found no evidence that it brings happiness.
