Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
If God has made the world a perfect mechanism, He has at least conceded so much to our imperfect intellect that in order to predict little parts of it, we need not solve innumerable differential equations, but can use dice with fair success.
