To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Never complain and never explain.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Well done is better than well said.

Always desire to learn something useful.

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