Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Never complain and never explain.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
It's always too early to quit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I consider my ability to arouse enthusiasm among men the greatest asset I possess. The way to develop the best that is in a man is by appreciation and encouragement.
