The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Only the educated are free.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Who seeks shall find.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The relationship between press and politician - protected by the Constitution and designed to be happily adversarial - becomes sour, raw and confrontational.
