Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Never complain and never explain.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
