To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
