If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you think you can do it, you can.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.
When I was younger I probably didn't understand something basic about tact, but I think it kept faint-hearted people at arm's distance and that's not such a bad thing, because life is short and I know the kind of people I want to work with.
