Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

You never know what motivates you.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

It's always too early to quit.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
