Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Well done is better than well said.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If the highest things are unknowable, then the highest capacity or virtue of man cannot be theoretical wisdom.
