Always desire to learn something useful.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
It's always too early to quit.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Leap, and the net will appear.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
