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

It's always too early to quit.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Well done is better than well said.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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