Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

You never know what motivates you.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
