Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Know or listen to those who know.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
