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

Never complain and never explain.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

I can, therefore I am.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

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

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
