After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Know or listen to those who know.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I can, therefore I am.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Who seeks shall find.
Poetry asks people to have values, form opinions, care about some other part of experience besides making money and being successful on the job.
