Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
You never know what motivates you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I have a book coming out in September, for example, where the plot concerns counterfeiting, and I had to do a lot of research on that. Or on any legal matters, for example, I have to do a lot of research online.
