Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
It's always too early to quit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Theater and poetry were what helped people stay alive and want to go on living.
