Know or listen to those who know.
After a storm comes a calm.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
