Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
After a storm comes a calm.
Oh, the ignorance of us upon whom Providence did not sufficiently smile to permit us to be born in New England.
