To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
After a storm comes a calm.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Who seeks shall find.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
