To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

After a storm comes a calm.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

You never know what motivates you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
