Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

I can, therefore I am.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Know or listen to those who know.

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

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
