If you can dream it, you can do it.
I can, therefore I am.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Well done is better than well said.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
