Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
It's always too early to quit.
I generally wade in blind and trust to fate and instinct to see me through.
