Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Only the educated are free.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
