Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Never complain and never explain.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
After a storm comes a calm.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
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?
