It's always too early to quit.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Who seeks shall find.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
I can, therefore I am.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
I write in the morning from about eight till noon, and sometimes again a bit in the afternoon. In the morning I start off by going over what I had done the previous day, which my wife has happily typed up for me.
