To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Never complain and never explain.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The test of good manners is to be patient with the bad ones.
Jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire.
The beginning of wisdom is to desire it.
