If you've got a talent, protect it.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Never complain and never explain.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Know or listen to those who know.
