Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Wherever you are - be all there.
I can, therefore I am.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
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.
