Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
