The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
