To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
You never know what motivates you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The job of buildings is to improve human relations: architecture must ease them, not make them worse.
