Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
After a storm comes a calm.
Well done is better than well said.
If you think you can do it, you can.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
I can, therefore I am.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
No one is so completely disenchanted with the world, or knows it so thoroughly, or is so utterly disgusted with it, that when it begins to smile upon him he does not become partially reconciled to it.
