Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I can, therefore I am.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
You never know what motivates you.
However, if a poem can be reduced to a prose sentence, there can't be much to it.
Well, if this is poetry, I'm certainly never going to write any myself.
