Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Wherever you are - be all there.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Well done is better than well said.
Know or listen to those who know.
It's always too early to quit.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Even when I begin with a situation that's basically funny or sad, I like to keep poking around in it. I like to get into the middle of a relationship, to explore the subtle places.
