To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Only the educated are free.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Men are often biased in their judgment on account of their sympathy and their interests.
