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

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Well done is better than well said.
