Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Never complain and never explain.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

Well done is better than well said.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
