Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Who seeks shall find.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Only the educated are free.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The art of leadership... consists in consolidating the attention of the people against a single adversary and taking care that nothing will split up that attention.
When a man assumes leadership, he forfeits the right to mercy.
