If you've got a talent, protect it.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

After a storm comes a calm.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Who seeks shall find.

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

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
