The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Wherever you are - be all there.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
