To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
All good poetry is forged slowly and patiently, link by link, with sweat and blood and tears.
