Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
My literary success meant nothing to me.
