Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
It's always too early to quit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Wherever you are - be all there.
I compare it to being in a car accident. There's so much adrenaline rushing through you that you remember being in the accident but you don't remember any of the details.
