To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Leap, and the net will appear.
It requires more strength to be gentle, so it's the everyday encounters of life that I think we've prepared children for and prepared them to be good to other people and to consider other people.
