To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Well done is better than well said.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

It's always too early to quit.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
