Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If money, education, and honesty will not bring to me as much privilege, as much equality as they bring to any American citizen, then they are to me a curse, and not a blessing.
