“Your thoughts are not yours until when you start pondering upon them.”

“You are not a failure until you start blaming others for your mistakes”

“I thought I knew where I was going, until I heard your laughter flowing
And came upon the wisdom in your eyes”

“Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun's rays do not burn until brought to a focus.”

“Until you actually start making something, your brilliant idea is just that, an idea.”

“When you start putting pen to paper, you see a side of your personal truth that doesn't otherwise reveal itself in conversation or thought.”

“Thoughts - even fears - were airy things, formless until you made them solid with your voice and once given that weight, they could crush you.”

“Open a book this minute and start reading. Don’t move until you’ve reached page fifty. Until you’ve buried your thoughts in print. Cover yourself with words. Wash yourself away. Dissolve.”

“It’s not when you start that makes your success in the world, but when you quit.”

“So where do you start when you want to start your life again?”
