To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

It's always too early to quit.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Only the educated are free.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
