Know or listen to those who know.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
I can, therefore I am.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Well done is better than well said.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
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.
