Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Never complain and never explain.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Without work, all life goes rotten. But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies.
A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.
