Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Know or listen to those who know.
Well done is better than well said.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Frankly, the reason I joined MENSA is because I was dating a guy at the time who spoke five languages and could solve a Rubik's Cube literally with his eyes closed because it's just an algorithm.
