Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I can, therefore I am.
It's always too early to quit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
You never know what motivates you.
Who seeks shall find.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
