If you can dream it, you can do it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
