What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Know or listen to those who know.
Wherever you are - be all there.
I was an organizer in the Food, Agricultural and Tobacco Workers Union down in North Carolina.
What motivated me? My mother. My mother was an immigrant woman, a peasant woman, struggled all her life, worked in the garment center.
