To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Who seeks shall find.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I think the greatest taboos in America are faith and failure.
