Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Only the educated are free.
Know or listen to those who know.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
It's always too early to quit.
