To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The Obama administration believes in experts and blue-ribbon panels. They believe in creating new agencies and boards. They believe in all that, but they just don't trust the entrepreneur's ability to grow her own business and to create jobs.
