Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Who seeks shall find.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Well done is better than well said.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I shall begin my march for Camp tomorrow morning. It was not in my power to move until I could procure shoes for the troops almost barefoot.
