Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Who seeks shall find.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
It's always too early to quit.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If a weakly mortal is to do anything in the world besides eat the bread thereof, there must be a determined subordination of the whole nature to the one aim no trifling with time, which is passing, with strength which is only too limited.
