To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Only the educated are free.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
It's always too early to quit.
I guess happiness is not a state you want to be in all the time.
