Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
It's always too early to quit.
Always desire to learn something useful.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I've tried word processors, but I think I'm too old a dog to use one.
