Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Only the educated are free.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
There is nothing respecting which a man may be so long unconscious as of the extent and strength of his prejudices.
