The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Who seeks shall find.
Know or listen to those who know.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Part of my growing up was always trying to make my parents proud and always trying to keep them happy. I think part of what held them together was my involvement in sports.
