You never know what motivates you.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
I can, therefore I am.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
A poem conveys not a message so much as the provenance of a message, an advent of sense.
No art form points like poetry to this originality of language as to its essential and abiding concern.
