The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Never complain and never explain.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

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

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
