Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Never complain and never explain.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The romantic idea is that everybody around a writer must suffer for his talent. I think a writer is a citizen of humanity, part of his nation, part of his family. He may have to make some compromises.
