Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
I can, therefore I am.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
After these three novels I gave up writing novels for a time I was dissatisfied with romantic doom, yet didn't see much way around it.
