To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
You never know what motivates you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
It's always too early to quit.
Solitude can be used well by very few people. They who do must have a knowledge of the world to see the foolishness of it, and enough virtue to despise all the vanity.
