Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you think you can do it, you can.
