Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I think one of the downsides of the sort of obsession with romantic love and personal fulfillment is that the plain fact of the matter is that those feelings don't last for ever and so they better be replaced and reinforced by things that do.
