Never complain and never explain.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

After a storm comes a calm.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
