To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I get up in the morning, torture a typewriter until it screams, then stop.
