Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Only the educated are free.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
