Well done is better than well said.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
After a storm comes a calm.
I wrote somewhere during the Cold War that I sometimes wish the Iron Curtain were much taller than it is, so that you could see whether the development of science with no communication was parallel on the two sides. In this case it certainly wasn't.
