If you've got a talent, protect it.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
