Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Never complain and never explain.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
