Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Who seeks shall find.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Know or listen to those who know.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
