To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Know or listen to those who know.

If you think you can do it, you can.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Only the educated are free.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
