The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
It's always too early to quit.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
From you we have learned what we, at least, value, to separate Church and State and from you we gather inspiration at all times in our devotion to learning, to religious liberty, and to individual and National freedom.
