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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Never complain and never explain.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

You never know what motivates you.
