To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Modern societies march towards morality in proportion as they leave religion behind.
