Either you run the day or the day runs you.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

It's always too early to quit.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

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

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
