Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Well done is better than well said.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Only the educated are free.
If you could choose one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humor.
