Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Wherever you are - be all there.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
