Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Wherever you are - be all there.
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
