Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I can, therefore I am.
You never know what motivates you.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Under these conditions it is not astonishing that learning was highly prized in fact, my parents made sacrifices to be able to give their children a good education.
My father was a schoolteacher and my mother came from a teacher's family.
