Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
It's always too early to quit.
Only the educated are free.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I think this is what hooks one to gardening: it is the closest one can come to being present at creation.
Mistakes are the usual bridge between inexperience and wisdom.
