Either you run the day or the day runs you.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

It's always too early to quit.

Know or listen to those who know.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
