To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Well done is better than well said.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Never complain and never explain.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
I spent many a summer early morning with the radio very low, half sleeping and half listening.
