To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Imitation is being rewarded. They're learning that if you fit right in the mold, you get rewarded. Music is no longer a form of expression - it's a means to a lifestyle.
