Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Never complain and never explain.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Know or listen to those who know.
