Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.
