Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Never complain and never explain.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I do like to shock and surprise people. When it's all in good fun, of course.
