Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Well done is better than well said.

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

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

Know or listen to those who know.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
