Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Never complain and never explain.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
