The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.

And when you're alone, there's a very good chance
you'll meet things that scare you right out of your pants.
There are some, down the road between hither and yon,
that can scare you so much you won't want to go on.

But on you will go
though the weather be foul.
On you will go
though your enemies prowl.
On you will go
though the Hakken-Kraks howl.
Onward up many
a frightening creek,
though your arms may get sore
and your sneakers may leak.

Whenever things go a bit sour in a job I'm doing, I always tell myself, 'You can do better than this.'

You learn more when things go wrong.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go.

You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.
