Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first.
