Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

It's always too early to quit.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

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

Leap, and the net will appear.

Always desire to learn something useful.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
