Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

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

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

Who seeks shall find.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
