Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Always desire to learn something useful.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.
