Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
After a storm comes a calm.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Know or listen to those who know.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I loved my 17 years with R.E.M., but I'm ready to reflect, assess and move on to a different phase of my life. The four of us will continue our close friendship, and I look forward to hearing their future efforts as the world's biggest R.E.M. fan.
