If you've got a talent, protect it.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
