Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

You never know what motivates you.

I can, therefore I am.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
