To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
I can, therefore I am.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Who seeks shall find.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
One can't write for all readers. A poet cannot write for people who don't like poetry.
