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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Never complain and never explain.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Wherever you are - be all there.
