To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
And as far as false hope, there is no such thing. There is only hope or the absence of hope-nothing else.
