To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
