If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
You never know what motivates you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
As my dad said, you have an obligation to leave the world better than how you found it. And he also reminded us to be givers in this life, and not takers.
