It's always too early to quit.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
I can, therefore I am.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Who seeks shall find.
Well done is better than well said.
You don't go after poetry, you take what comes. Maybe the gods do it through me but I certainly do a hell of a lot of the work.
