Wherever you are - be all there.
You never know what motivates you.
Never complain and never explain.
Leap, and the net will appear.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
When a child, my dreams rode on your wishes, I was your son, high on your horse, My mind a top whipped by the lashes Of your rhetoric, windy of course.
Great poetry is always written by somebody straining to go beyond what he can do.
