To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Who seeks shall find.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The people who live in a golden age usually go around complaining how yellow everything looks.
I think that one possible definition of our modern culture is that it is one in which nine-tenths of our intellectuals can't read any poetry.
