Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

I can, therefore I am.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Leap, and the net will appear.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

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