Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Know or listen to those who know.
Who seeks shall find.
Always desire to learn something useful.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
I used to joke that if acting didn't work out, poetry was my commonsense fallback.
