If you're going through hell, keep going.
Who seeks shall find.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Actually, I always dreamed about getting a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle in Olympic swimming. I always thought that would be the epic award in sports to get.
