Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Only the educated are free.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Know or listen to those who know.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
I always wanted to be honest with myself and to those who have had faith in me.
