The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Only the educated are free.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Wherever you are - be all there.
