To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

After a storm comes a calm.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

You never know what motivates you.

Leap, and the net will appear.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
