Only the educated are free.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Never complain and never explain.
If the past has been an obstacle and a burden, knowledge of the past is the safest and the surest emancipation.
Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
