Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

It's always too early to quit.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
