Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success.
Henry Ford

Anyone who stops learning is old — whether this happens at twenty or at eighty. Anyone who keeps on learning not only remains young but becomes constantly more valuable — regardless of physical capacity.

The whole secret of a successful life is to find out what is one's destiny to do, and then do it.
Henry Ford
