Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
You never know what motivates you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
A poem conveys not a message so much as the provenance of a message, an advent of sense.
No art form points like poetry to this originality of language as to its essential and abiding concern.
