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

Always desire to learn something useful.

Well done is better than well said.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
