The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
You never know what motivates you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Why not collect and clean chicken wishbones in the run-up to Christmas, spray them silver and use each to pinch together a white hem-stitch napkin?
