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

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

I can, therefore I am.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
