Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

Well done is better than well said.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Always desire to learn something useful.
