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

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

I can, therefore I am.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

After a storm comes a calm.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
