The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Well done is better than well said.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Only the educated are free.
It's always too early to quit.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Mine are the deep-seated fears established when we are children, and they never quite go away: the fear of being helpless, the fear of being trapped, the fear of being out of control.
