Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

It's always too early to quit.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

If you think you can do it, you can.
