Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Leap, and the net will appear.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Never complain and never explain.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
