To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
You never know what motivates you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
Never complain and never explain.
Music exalts each joy, allays each grief, expels diseases, softens every pain, subdues the rage of poison, and the plague.
