Either you run the day or the day runs you.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Know or listen to those who know.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
