Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

After a storm comes a calm.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
