The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
It's always too early to quit.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.

The poem is the point at which our strength gave out.
