Do not count your chickens before they hatch.

Work is love made visible.

I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win—if you don't, you won't.

How much more than is necessary do we spend in sleep, forgetting that the sleeping fox catches no poultry, and that there will be sleeping enough in the grave.

The results you achieve will be in direct proportion to the effort you apply.

I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass.
