Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

You never know what motivates you.
