Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
I can, therefore I am.
It's always too early to quit.
Who seeks shall find.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
So the thing I realized rather gradually - I must say starting about 20 years ago now that we know about computers and things - there's a possibility of a more general basis for rules to describe nature.
