If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Only the educated are free.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
