Always desire to learn something useful.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Know or listen to those who know.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Who seeks shall find.
Leap, and the net will appear.
I actually think with age comes some level of wisdom.
