Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Know or listen to those who know.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you think you can do it, you can.

I can, therefore I am.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
