Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Never complain and never explain.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

After a storm comes a calm.

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