Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

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

I can, therefore I am.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
