To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Wherever you are - be all there.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

After a storm comes a calm.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

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