Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

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

Well done is better than well said.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

You never know what motivates you.
