Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Well done is better than well said.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
I always had two or three jobs at the same time. I started doing yard work when I was 7 or 8. When I was 13, I got my first state job doing road construction. Between working, sports and school, I hardly ever had free time.
