Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Leap, and the net will appear.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
