Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

After a storm comes a calm.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
