Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

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

After a storm comes a calm.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
