Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Never complain and never explain.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you set as your goal to roll back the size of government, you have an obligation to answer the tough questions and show real courage, not just appeal to ideology. Treat the voters like adults.
