Well done is better than well said.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
It's always too early to quit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
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.
