It's always too early to quit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Writing poetry makes you intensely conscious of how words sound, both aloud and inside the head of the reader. You learn the weight of words and how they sound to the ear.
