Always desire to learn something useful.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
After a storm comes a calm.
Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
My father left... but I tell my mom - and I told my mom this when I was a kid - I said, 'You know what, Mom? Good thing he left because you're a strong woman.'
