If you're going through hell, keep going.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Always desire to learn something useful.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
