Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

It's always too early to quit.

Know or listen to those who know.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
