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

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

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Well done is better than well said.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
