What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Always desire to learn something useful.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Never complain and never explain.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
