Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Who seeks shall find.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
