Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
After a storm comes a calm.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
You never know what motivates you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
Who seeks shall find.
Because at bottom, I'm interested in fear, and in courage and cowardice and these are easier to get at through fiction, where you can enter people's heads.
