The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
When a child, my dreams rode on your wishes, I was your son, high on your horse, My mind a top whipped by the lashes Of your rhetoric, windy of course.
Great poetry is always written by somebody straining to go beyond what he can do.
