Don't judge those who try and fail. Judge only those who fail to try.
Give people a second chance, but not a third.
People take different roads seeking fulfilment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.
Never be ashamed of your patriotism.
Love your work, then you will find pleasure in mastering it.
Remember that no time is ever wasted that makes two people better friends.
