Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Know or listen to those who know.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
You never know what motivates you.
As a system of philosophy it is not like the Tower of Babel, so daring its high aim as to seek a shelter against God's anger but it is like a pyramid poised on its apex.
