Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I can, therefore I am.
Who seeks shall find.
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.
