Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

Know or listen to those who know.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Well done is better than well said.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Leap, and the net will appear.
