Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you have confidence you have patience. Confidence, that is everything.
