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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Know or listen to those who know.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

You never know what motivates you.
