To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Always desire to learn something useful.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

After a storm comes a calm.

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