To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Never complain and never explain.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

If you can dream it, you can do it.
