Well done is better than well said.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Who seeks shall find.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
