Resolve not to be poor: whatever you have, spend less. Poverty is a great enemy to human happiness; it certainly destroys liberty, and it makes some virtues impracticable, and others extremely difficult.
Samuel Johnson
Art begins with resistance - at the point where resistance is overcome. No human masterpiece has ever been created without great labor.

Bertrand Russell
