Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
After a storm comes a calm.
Well done is better than well said.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
I have learned to live each day as it comes, and not to borrow trouble by dreading tomorrow. It is the dark menace of the future that makes cowards of us.
