Always desire to learn something useful.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Know or listen to those who know.
Leap, and the net will appear.
You can take no credit for beauty at sixteen. But if you are beautiful at sixty, it will be your own soul's doing.
