Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

You never know what motivates you.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

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

Never complain and never explain.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
