To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Leap, and the net will appear.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Actually, I always dreamed about getting a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle in Olympic swimming. I always thought that would be the epic award in sports to get.
