Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Only the educated are free.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The capacity you're thinking of is imagination without it there can be no understanding, indeed no fiction.
