If you think you can do it, you can.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Who seeks shall find.

My dad served in two wars has been flying airplanes for 60 years now. He was certainly quite an inspiration.
