Always desire to learn something useful.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

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

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
