Well done is better than well said.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
