To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Well done is better than well said.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
It's always too early to quit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Who writes poetry imbibes honey from the poisoned lips of life.
