The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
Don’t wait until they tell you you are ready. The world might say you are not allowed to yet. I waited a long time in the world before I gave myself permission to fail. Please, Don’t even bother asking, don't bothering telling the world you are ready. Show it. Do it.
Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on the permission of another.
