Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

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

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Wherever you are - be all there.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

Always desire to learn something useful.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
