Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Who seeks shall find.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Know or listen to those who know.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
