Wherever you are - be all there.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Only the educated are free.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
I've just finished reading a book about the brilliant Margaret Rutherford. She wasn't a beauty, but inside she was absolutely blazing and passionate about her work. She's one of those life-affirming characters.
