The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

If you think you can do it, you can.

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

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Well done is better than well said.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
