Always desire to learn something useful.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Only the educated are free.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Well done is better than well said.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Never complain and never explain.
