Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

You never know what motivates you.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
