Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

You never know what motivates you.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Always desire to learn something useful.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
