Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you think you can do it, you can.
You never know what motivates you.
It's always too early to quit.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
I started off in England and very few people knew I was Australian. I mean, the clues were in the poems, but they didn't read them very carefully, and so for years and years I was considered completely part of the English poetry scene.
