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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

After a storm comes a calm.
