To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
It's always too early to quit.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
If you don't have a teacher you can't have a disciple.
