Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you're going through hell, keep going.

After a storm comes a calm.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Well done is better than well said.
I get whatever placidity I have from my father. But my mother taught me how to take it on the chin.
