If you've got a talent, protect it.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
