Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
As human beings we do change, grow, adapt, perhaps even learn and become wiser.
