Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
For example, I spent a lot of time with Reagan, both before he ran for governor and when he was running for president. As a print reporter without the cameras, I was able to really test the quality of their minds and their knowledge base.
