Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Well done is better than well said.
And, in fact, you can find that the lack of basic resources, material resources, contributes to unhappiness, but the increase in material resources do not increase happiness.
