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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

I can, therefore I am.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Never complain and never explain.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.
