Mark Twain

"The secret of getting ahead is getting started—and continuing."

"A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time."

"Breakups are painful teachers, but honest ones."

"Fear often feels louder in your mind than it is in real life."

"Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths."

"A friend is one who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden."

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did."

"The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same."

"The secret of getting ahead is getting started."

"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."
