Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
After a storm comes a calm.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Only the educated are free.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If God has made the world a perfect mechanism, He has at least conceded so much to our imperfect intellect that in order to predict little parts of it, we need not solve innumerable differential equations, but can use dice with fair success.
