Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Well done is better than well said.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Faith gives you an inner strength and a sense of balance and perspective in life.
