What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Always desire to learn something useful.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
